On June 2019, it was registered the individuals in 12 plots of 10x10 meters at three distances from the edge: 0, 30 and 60 meters. It was found 686 individuals,602 juveniles and 84 adults. Only the number of individuals in Youth category III was signi cant, in the intermediate distance. e population structure of C. litoralis shows an expanding pattern. A possible edge effect can only be observed in the Juvenile III category. e population patterns, found in this work, should be taken in account for the sustainable use and conservation of this endemic species |
