Epiphytes can have both your richness and abundance altered by environmental conditions. In this study, we tested whether host plant characteristics (phorophyte) and other environmental factors contribute to the increased abundance of vascular epiphytes. Seventy-five fixed 20 × 20 m plots were sampled, distributed among three fragments of Dry Seasonal Tropical Forest (Caatinga) in three municipalities of Sergipe, Brazil: Poço Redondo (area 1), Porto da Folha (area 2) and Poço Verde (area 3). The hypotheses tested were: I. the greater the structural complexity of the phorophyte, greater the abundance of epiphytes in response to a greater diversity of fixing sites; II. Epiphyte abundance will be positively related to environmental factors tha...
