The of this study is to describe the reproductive and vegetative phenological patterns of individualsof Copernicia alba, popularly known as "carandá", present in a flooded and non-flooded environment and totest the relations between vegetative and reproductive phenophasesand climatic seasonality. The phenologicalaspects of the carandá were obtained through a biweekly observation of 22 individuals from two areas of thePantanal of Mato Grosso between August 2015 and August 2017. The carandá population presented a perennialbehavior, flowering during the dry season and a greater leaf intensity in the transition period to the rainy season.Budding, although continuous, was intense in the rainy season, and the leaf deciduous pattern had a directinterference from the absence of rainfalls in the dry period. The incidence of floral buds occurred in the dryperiod, and the flowering occurred between the dry and rainy periods. The fruiting period occurred in the rainyseason, indicating a high synchronism of phenophases.
