Summary
Three woody plant species—Byrsonima microphylla, Chamaecrista ramosa, and Vellozia dasypus—in Salvador de Bahia’s urban restinga exhibit distinct reproductive and vegetative phenological patterns. B. microphylla and C. ramosa display continuous flowering and fruiting, while V. dasypus shows an annual explosive pattern with intermediate synchrony levels. These species are perennial, and their fenophases do not correlate with abiotic factors. Notably, B. microphylla and C. ramosa provide simultaneous floral and fruit resources year-round, supporting pollinators and frugivores in this seasonally dynamic ecosystem.
