“…This species has been named in different ways according to the regions in which it grows: "cueramo" in Michoacán, "bojote" in Guerrero, "barcino" in Jalisco and "anacahuite" in Oaxaca. Its distribution in Mexico includes from Jalisco to Chiapas and it is very important in its ecosystem as it is considered of canopy gregarious habits (Van Groenendael et al, 1996); also, it is intensely used in the wooden industry as with it are made a great number of products such as key holders, jewelry, masks, boxes, furniture, music instruments, room games and kitchen gadgets (Pérez, 1993). C. elaeagnoides has some problems related to embryo abortions, which reduces its germination under natural conditions, to which can be added that its seeds are regularly attacked by generalist rodents (Van Groenendael et al, 1996).…”

“…A esta especie se le denomina de distintas maneras en función de las regiones en las que crece: "cueramo" en Michoacán, "bojote" en Guerrero, "barcino" en Jalisco y "anacahuite" en Oaxaca. Su distribución en México abarca desde Jalisco hasta Chiapas y tiene gran importancia en su ecosistema pues se le considera gregaria del dosel (Van Groenendael et al, 1996); por otro lado, es muy utilizada en la industria de la madera, ya que con el la se elabora una gran diversi dad de productos tales como llaveros, joyas, máscaras, cajas, muebles, instrumentos musicales, juegos de salón y artículos de cocina (Pérez, 1993). C. elaeagnoides tiene problemas relacionados con el aborto de embriones, lo cual disminuye la germinación en condiciones naturales, a lo cual habría de agregarse que sus semillas también pueden ser atacadas por roedores generalistas (Van Groenendael et al , 1996).…”

“…www.elsevier.com/locate/foreco Forest Ecology and Management 215 (2005) 196-211 Although several studies have already been completed (e.g. Clark, 1992, 1999;Hawthorne, 1995;McCormick, 1995;Groenendael et al, 1996;Zagt, 1997;Nebel, 2001;Nebel et al, 2001a), further contributions are required both with respect to development of methods to acquire knowledge on population structure, growth, and reproduction and with respect to empirical results for important timber tree species. The purpose of the present paper is to supply specific ecological information on some important timber tree species of the Peruvian Amazon flood plains (Table 1), providing an improved basis of managing these species in selection logging systems.…”

“…O manejo de florestas tropicais para exploração ou conservação, depende do entendimento da dinâmica populacional de formas de vida de plantas dominantes ( VAN GROENENDAEL et al, 1996). Deste modo, estudos que visem um conhecimento maior do comportamento populacional, especialmente de espécies dominantes, são fundamentais.…”
