            The author explains that his work is only a comment on the "Map of the original vegetation of the State of Paraná", and that he does not intend to study profoundly the vegetation, but only to give a general idea of the different types noted on the map.

            He describes shortly the methods and the elements used in this work.

            At the first point the author explains the development of the work and enumerates the sources used: 1) observations on field realized during different excursions; 2) aerial photos; 3) information of bibliography (maps, books, articles, etc.).

            At the end of this chapter the author explains why he has done a map of the original vegetation, and not one of the actual vegetation.
