title: [Aquatic macrophytes from a marginal lake of the Embu-mirim river, São Paulo, Brazil].
abstract: In the years 1984/1985, limnological surveys were carried out at a marginal pond of the Embu-mirim river belonging to the hydrographic basin of Guarapiranga Reservoir (S. Paulo, Brazil), in order to obtain data for the determination of physical, chemical and biological parameters. Results obtained from the study of the aquatic macrophytes and their relationships with other environmental parameters are analyzed. Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms, the dominant macrophyte, was observed in several water bodies of that basin, including the river it self, thus favoring an evaluation of its behavior in similar water bodies of the basin.
