RESUMO

As attempt of elucidating the environmental factors that they control the plasticity floral fenotipic of Catasetum fimbriatum Lindley, fenological, vegetative and anatomical studies of the species began, through of the accompaniment of 45 individuals. Thirty of these individuals were collected and put in the vases later. The other ones 15 already existed naturally in the trees of the Campus ESALQ/USP, allowing like this, to trace ecological correlations among the three installed treatments. The first fifteen individuals, they were conditioned at vegetation house where intense brightness prevailed, high temperatures and it lowers relative humidity of the air. Such treatment was entitled treatment 1. The other collected individuals that were put in the vase, and that they constituted the treatment 2, they were submitted the low luminous intensity, to a smaller temperature and a relative humidity of the highest air. The last fifteen individuals, presented the natural conditions of survival of the species, and they constituted in that way, the treatment 3. At the end of the experiment, the great adaptability could be verified of the species to the differentiated environments, through the ecotipes formation, which became visible due to differences presented mainly by the individuals in the amount of sprouts. With relationship to the sexual, same trimorfism not having had the occurrence of feminine diclinous flowers, the anatomical study verified the presence of cellular closters with meristematic characteristic in the ovaries and ginostemeus of the flowers, the ones which, If they were environmently stimulated by the period of necessary time, possibly through an increase in the levels etylene endogenous, they would interfere in the sexual expression of the species contributing to the appearance of feminine diclinous flowers and monoclinous flowers.
