In both areas the degree of conservation of the vegetable cover was determined and they made enrichments in groups, with different species. The results show that the broken fragments forest is little conserved, in which trees and xerofíticos shrub prevail, with Guaiacum officinalis L. and Leucaena leucocephala (Lam) de Wit, like more abundant species.
