Description:	Brazilian Pantanal occupies approximately 138.000 km? of low land temporarily exposed to flooding. In spite of its occupation and extensive cattle farming use, the region conservation can still be considered as satisfactory. The cropped pastures after deforestation have been introduced especially in areas not exposed to floodings, what means slightly elevated areas with wood vegetation as Savanna, Forested Savanna and Semideciduos Seasonal Forest, that are the main Pantanal wood phytofisiognomy. Regardless of the importance and use of those vegetation, not much is known about their ecology, plant communities relationships or natural regeneration processes of the main phytophysiognomies of Pantanal. These ecological data are essential information for the conservation and sustainable development of the region. In this context, anatomical studies come to contribute substantially to decrease the lack in the scientific knowledge, supplying additional data that contribute to conservation studies ofthose species.
