dc.description.abstract1	Background and aims Understanding the correlation between soil properties, species composition and diversity in veredas (Brazilian savanna palm swamps) can provide insights for managing this unique and endangered environment. Methods We evaluated the relationships between the distribution and composition of herbaceous, subshrub, and shrub species and soil physicochemical properties of 21 vereda sites (315 10-m transects) in Central Brazil. Results Our results showed high foristic alpha and beta diversity in the studied sites and signifcant diferences in soil properties of the veredas. The proportion of exclusive species in the veredas ranged from 4 to 38%, indicating that the plant species distribution in the veredas is mosaic-like. Vereda soils were acidic, with high levels of aluminum, organic matter, and sand, but low levels of phosphorus, magnesium, and calcium. Soil phosphorus, pH, organic matter, cation saturation, and sand proportion were important in understanding veredas’ species composition (86% of the variation) and species richness (63%). Phosphorus and pH were positively correlated with species richness, whereas organic matter was negatively correlated. Organic matter, cation saturation, and sand were negatively correlated with compositional similarity, but phosphorus was positively correlated. Veredas with high foristic diversity had low fertility soils. Conclusion The studied veredas showed signifcant diferences in soil properties, with some variables being key drivers in assembling signifcantly diverse herbaceous-shrub communities in these wetland islands surrounded by a dry matrix of the Cerrado savanna.	pt_BR
