Abstract

Post-fire regeneration in ecosystems dominated by Quercus pyrenaica was studied, from one month to five years after the fire. Floristic composition was compared, if it was possible, with the one before the fire, or with the cli?max community, if it was not. In the best preserved zones, a similar species composition to the climax one was observed since the first samplings. In the zones most disturbed before the fire, there is an increase of shrub species, showing a trend to substitute the primitive forest by shrublands.
