Abstract
Se realizó el estudio ecoanatómico de la madera de Casuarina equisetifolia Forst. de cinco localidades del país para determinar posibles variaciones en la estructura de la madera. Se colectaron muestras de tres troncos adultos en cada localidad, las cuales se procesaron según técnicas anatómicas usuales. Se calculó la capacidad de campo por la fórmula de Gaerdner a partir del análisis mecánico de los suelos. De los diferentes tipos de tejidos se hicieron mediciones de los elementos que pueden afectar la calidad de la madera y variar los índices mesomorfía y vulnerabilidad para su caracterización ecoanatómica. Se encontraron variaciones significativas en el número de vasos por unidad de área y el diámetro de las fibras, obteniéndose los mayores valores para las muestras de Topes de Collantes. No se encontró relación entre los índices de vulnerabilidad y mesomorfía con la capacidad de campo.
