We examine scientific evidence underpinning the application of the Atlantic Forest Act (AFA) to licensing and compensation in campo rupestre, a megadiverse grassland strongly affected by mining but lacking specific legislation. We found no empirical support to the assumptions of the current legislation. First, lists of indicators species are not appropriate to indicate successional stages in campo rupestre. Second, the reliance on successional stages of regeneration in this ecosystem as recommended by legislation has no empirical support. Using the AFA instead of a specific policy to campo rupestre has led to significant area loss of this vegetation type. We conclude that inadequate legislation enforcement poses a threat to biodiversity and conservation of the campo rupestre. We recommend the environmental agencies to immediately stop using current legislation (CONAMA Resolution 423/2010) in environmental licensing processes and provide suggestions for the elaboration of specific legislation that addresses the peculiarities and importance of campo rupestre.

无声损失:不当采用环境法会损害巴西生物多样性热点地区的保护

我们研究了将《大西洋森林法》(AFA)应用于在Campo rupestre的许可和补偿中应用的科学证据,Campo rupestre是一个受采矿影响很大但缺乏具体立法的巨型草原。我们发现对当前立法的假设没有经验支持。首先,指标种类的列表不适合用来表示卢姆营地的演替阶段。第二,法律建议的对这种生态系统中再生的连续阶段的依赖没有经验支持。使用AFA而不是针对Campo rupestre的特定政策已经导致这种植被类型的大量面积损失。我们得出的结论是,执法不力对坎波卢佩斯特(Campo rupestre)的生物多样性和保护构成了威胁。我们建议环保部门在环境许可程序立即停止使用目前的立法(CONAMA分辨率二千零十分之四百二十三),并提供建议的专门立法的制定是地址的特殊性和重要性坎波rupestre
