| Sumario: | The Araucaria Forest is considered one of the most degraded eco-regions of Latin America. The strong landscape fragmentation has caused habitat loss, isolation of populations and, consequently, genetic impoverishment, extinction of species and loss of biodiversity. In order to improve the situation the landscape must be planned and management activities aiming biodiversity conservation be implanted. One of the strategies used is environmental restoration based on good knowledge of the natural environment, so that more adequate and economically more viable techniques can be defined. This study describes some characteristic environmental situation observed in the Araucaria Forest in the State of Parana which should be considered on applying restoration strategies in the State's different regions. |
