The Crepori National Forest is in the municipality of Jacareacanga, Pará. It has an area of Шаблон:Convert.Шаблон:Sfn It adjoins the Tapajós Environmental Protection Area to the north and east and the Mundurucu Indigenous Territory to the west.Шаблон:Sfn The northernmost part of the forest is in the Southern Pará Peripheral Depression, the central and eastern part in the Tapajós Residual Plateau and the southern and southwestern parts in the Amazon Lower Plateau domain. Altitudes range from Шаблон:Convert.Шаблон:Sfn

The forest takes its name from the Crepori River, an important right tributary of the Tapajós, which rises in the Serra do Cachimbo at Шаблон:Convert on the border between the municipalities of Itaituba and Jacareacanga.

History

The Crepori National Forest was created by federal decree on 13 February 2006 with the objectives of promoting sustainable multiple use of forest resources, maintenance and protection of water resources and biodiversity, and development of methods for sustainable exploitation of natural resources. Mining is allowed in specified areas.Шаблон:Sfn The park is administered by the Chico Mendes Institute for Biodiversity Conservation.Шаблон:Sfn It is classed as IUCN protected area category VI (protected area with sustainable use of natural resources).Шаблон:Sfn

The consultative council was created on 14 May 2009. On 17 November 2009 a working group was created to coordinate preparation of management tools for the Amaná, Crepori, Altamira, Jamanxim, Trairão, Itaituba I and Itaituba II national forests in the state of Pará. The management plan was approved on 10 March 2010.Шаблон:Sfn

Law 12678 of 25 June 2012 amended the limits of the Amazônia, Campos Amazônicos and Mapinguari national parks, the Itaituba I, Itaituba II and Crepori national forests and the Tapajós Environmental Protection Area. All were reduced in size except the Campos Amazônicos National Park.Шаблон:Sfn In the case of the Crepori National Forest, an area of about Шаблон:Convert was excluded to allow for the Jatobá Hydroelectric Power Plant on the Tapajós river. The reduction was about 0.2% of the forest, from Шаблон:Convert.Шаблон:Sfn

Environment

Temperatures range from Шаблон:Convert and average Шаблон:Convert. Average annual rainfall is Шаблон:Convert. Soil types include red-yellow acrisols (40.77% of the area), yellow latosols (32.89%) and red-yellow latosols (18.38%.Шаблон:Sfn

Vegetation is about 88% dense rainforest and just over 11% open rainforest.Шаблон:Sfn The flora is highly diverse. A total of 231 taxa of species or morphospecies have been identified in 40 botanical families. The families with the most species were Orchidaceae (38), Araceae (34), Arecaceae (29), Rubiaceae (11), Marantaceae (10) and Bromeliaceae (9). These families account for 56.27% of all taxa recorded in the forest. Many of the taxa are widely distributed, but some are very restricted to specific environments. Rare species include the Bromeliaceae Fosteella batistana and an unnamed species of Arecaceae, both of which occur in alluvial forest. An unidentified species of Bromeliaceae of the genus Aechmea has been found in only one place in the forest.Шаблон:Sfn

The forest is home to species endemic to the Amazon basin such as the Amazon river dolphin (Inia geoffrensis) and tucuxi (Sotalia fluviatilis), and to the white-cheeked spider monkey (Ateles marginatus) and white-nosed saki (Chiropotes albinasus), primates whose presence in the Tapajós basin was not certain until their presence was reported in the forest. Bird species endemic to the forest include the dark-winged trumpeter (Psophia viridis), Gould's toucanet (Selenidera gouldii) and lettered aracari (Pteroglossus inscriptus).Шаблон:Sfn
