That is why it has been included in the biodiversity hotspots map: areas which has already lost at least 70% of its plant cover, but that account for more than 60% of all terrestrial species in the planet. &#8220;It&#8217;s around 5,000 plant varieties, many of them exclusive to the region, from which bromeliads, orchids and palms are the most abundant,&#8221; stressed botanist Carlos Alfredo Joly, from the Biology Institute of Campinas State University (Unicamp), as well as coordinator of the Biota-FAPESP Program.
