Abstract

The objective of this research was to evaluate the spatial distribution of the michino (Manilkara bidentata (A. DC) A. Chevalier) in the district of Huarango, San Ignacio, Cajamarca, Peru. The field work was carried out in nine sectors: Sábanas, El Acerillo, La Playa, Caña Brava, El Triunfo, La Laguna, El Derrumbo, Naranjos Chaca and La Totora, an inventory of the individuals was carried out, georeferencing, recording data such as CAP, HF, HT, shape and condition of the stem, crown shape and phenology; In addition, he collected samples for identification.
