Abstract
Quantitative descriptions of the woody flora and soil analyses are given for five areas of cerrado (savanna woodland) near Cuiabá, Mato Grosso state, Brazil. Comparisons are made of the floristic composition and community structure of these areas using polar ordination and hierarchical classification techniques.Descrições quantitativas da flora lenhosa e anâlises de solos são apresentadas para cinco áreas de cerrado nas proximidades de Cuiabá, Mato Grosso. São realizadas comparações entre estas areas em composição florística e estrutura comunitária utilizando técnicas de ordenação polar e classifiçãcao hierárquica.Keywords
