We recorded the diversity of flowering and fruiting plants during one year of phenological study at Paucarillo Reserve located in the northeastern part of the Peruvian Amazon (3°41' S, 72°24' W). A total of 270 species from 59 families were recorded, of which 57% were represented by only one individual plant. Arecaceae and Rubiaceae were the dominant families in this site.

Keywords : fruiting plants; diversity; terra firma forest; north western Peru; Amazon.
