M. de  aFloristic comparison of mesophytic semideciduous forests of the interior of the state of Sao Paulo, Southeast Brazil.  c1995  aThe floristic composition (trees) of 26 forests in the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil, was compared using cluster analysis and Principal Coordinates Analysis (PCO) with simple Euclidean distance. The results obtained indicate the existence of two floristically distinct groups of forests. One group contains forests from higher areas (above 700 m) with a colder climate (Cfa and Cfb) and includes surveys from Angatuba, Atibaia, Guarulhos, Jundiai, Sao Jose dos Campos and Sao Paulo. The second group is floristically less homogeneous and includes forests of the central and western parts of the state, usually at lower altitudes (500 - 700 m) and subject to hotter climatic conditions (Cwa).  aBrazil  acluster analysis  aClima  aFloresta  aBrasil  aComparacao  aComparison  aNeotropical semideciduous forest  aPCO  aPrincipal coordinates analysis  aSao Paulo1 aSHEPHERD, G.
