AbstractThe Maricá restinga, located in the eastern part of the Rio de Janeiro State (Brazil), corresponds to one of the few remaining preserved areas of the state's coastal plain. This paper reports on a study of the Maricá restinga plant communities and also presents an identification of the main plant species present in each community, with the objective of establishing reference collections, by the methods of the proxies opal phytoliths and stable carbon isotopes, for paleoenvironmental reconstructions of this coastal area during the Quaternary. Six plant communities, distributed perpendicularly to the coast line over sandy barriers, lagoonal plain, lagoon margin and weathered basement were identified: halophile-psamophile, scrub, herbaceous swamp, slack, shrubby vegetation and dry forest. In general, the plant species analyzed in each community presented low productivity of opal phytoliths, as only the Poaceae, Cyperaceae and Arecaceae families produce a great amount and diversity of morphotypes of opal phytoliths. The results of the analysis of stable carbon isotopes in sediments indicated a predominance of C3 or a mixture of C3 and C4 plants, presenting a close correlation with the results found in plants collected in each community. In conclusion, it was verified that the carbon isotope analysis associated with that of the opal phytoliths are good proxies for the reconstruction of vegetation in the study area.

A restinga, vegetação predominante na planície costeira de Maricá no Estado do Rio de Janeiro, vem sendo devastada nas últimas décadas devido à ocupação desordenada que afeta os ecossistemas e altera profundamente a paisagem. Os objetivos desse trabalho estão voltados para a caracterização das comunidades vegetais da restinga na Área de Proteção Ambiental de Maricá e das espécies vegetais dominantes. Estudos dessa natureza ainda são possíveis graças à preservação desta restinga, o que permite um maior conhecimento sobre a biogeografia da região, importante para o desenvolvimento responsável e para um gerenciamento costeiro eficaz. Para isto, foram realizados trabalhos de campo para a caracterização das comunidades vegetais e das principais espécies que as constituem. Foram identificadas as espécies mais representativas de oito comunidades vegetais: halófila-psamófila, duas comunidades scrub, dois brejos herbáceos, slack, floresta seca e vegetação arbustiva nas margens da lagoa.

The Maricá “restinga”, located on the eastern part of Rio de Janeiro State (Brazil), corresponds to one of the few remaining preserved areas of the state's coastal plain. This coastline presents two sand barriers separated by a depression where there is a freshwater swamp and different plant communities distributed in areas of high ecological diversity accompanying the local topography and the range of marine spray. This paper is a study of the soil phytolith assemblages in the Maricá restinga, with the intent of establishing reference collections for paleoenvironmental studies of this coastal area during the Quaternary. Phytoliths were chosen as proxies, but their use for reconstruction of this type of vegetation is pioneer research, so it was essential to characterize the phytolith assemblages for each plant community through the identification of the main morphotypes and whether or not they are preserved in coastal depositional environments under the effect of geomorphology and salinity. Eight plant communities, distributed almost parallel to the coastline over sandy barriers, lagoonal plain, lagoon margin and weathered basement were identified: Halophile-psamophile, near the beach; two Scrub communities, one over the Holocene barrier and the other over the Pleistocene barrier; two Herbaceous swamps, one between the two sand barriers, the other behind the Pleistocene barrier; Slack, in front of the Pleistocene barrier; Shrubby vegetation on the shore of Maricá lagoon and Dry forest, over the weathered Pre-Cambrian basement. In general, it was found that this type of environment is not very favorable for the formation and accumulation of phytoliths. Restinga plants did not prove to be large producers of phytoliths, except those known as such, as in the case of Poaceae and Cyperaceae. It was also observed that the permanence of phytoliths in sediments is strongly influenced by its particle size and organic matter content. The largest stocks of phytoliths were found in swamp communities, due to the presence of organic matter and low energy dynamics, and in dry forests, where a process of pedogenesis already occurs. Despite the low phytolith stocks present in modern assemblages, they show a high degree of conservation, which enabled significant results for the study of this type of vegetation. The calculated phytolith indices (tree density and water stress) consistently expressed, in detail, the environment of each community analyzed from the point of view of the type of vegetation cover and the conditions of water availability to plants.

ResumoA Restinga de Maricá, situada na porção leste do estado do Rio de Janeiro (Brasil), corresponde a uma das poucas áreas ainda preservadas na planície litorânea fluminense. Neste trabalho, apresentamos um estudo sobre as comunidades vegetais que compõem a restinga, bem como a identificação das principais espécies presentes em cada uma delas. O objetivo é estabelecer coleções de referência para reconstituições paleoambientais desse litoral durante o Quaternário. Para isso, utilizaram-se como métodos os indicadores fitólitos e isótopos estáveis de carbono. Foram identificadas seis comunidades vegetais distribuídas perpendicularmente à linha de costa sobre as barreiras arenosas, planície lagunar, margem lagunar e embasamento alterado: Halófila-psamófila, "Scrub", Brejo herbáceo, "Slack", Vegetação arbustiva e Floresta seca. As espécies de plantas analisadas em cada comunidade apresentaram em geral baixa produtividade de fitólitos. Somente as famílias Poaceae, Cyperaceae e Arecaceae produzem fitólitos em grandes quantidades e diversidade de morfotipos. Os resultados das análises de isótopos estáveis de carbono em sedimentos indicaram um predomínio de plantas C3 ou de mistura de plantas C3 e C4, apresentando uma boa correspondência com os resultados encontrados nas plantas coletadas sobre cada uma delas. Como conclusão, verificou-se que os isótopos de carbono associados às análises fitolíticas mostraram-se bons indicadores para a reconstituição da vegetação na área estudada.
