Green Tunnels, focus of this study, constitute structures of landscape that are currently found in Porto Alegre. Composed by dense tree lined streets, it integrates the urban forest of the capital of the State and represents an alternative to proposals concerning the vegetation improvement in the urban environment. The proposals that go through the implantation of those tunnels should consider the increasing of density and richness of flora, reason why studies that evolve surveys of the vegetation found on streets are an important subsidy to formulate those projects. This research evaluates aspects referring to diversity and composition of the tree species vegetation that form part of some green tunnels of Porto Alegre, RS, establishing a comparison between species and having in mind that the management of this kind of linear vegetation represents an alternative to increase density and diversity of urban forests.Downloads
