Some techniques can be used in order to promote the recovery of degraded areas like riverine ecosystems, and those with low impacts present a fast regeneration, through an ecological succession with no need for human intervention. It is necessary to study the use of techniques that contribute to the recovery of these ecosystems, such as soil bioengineering, which involves the use of biologically active elements working on soil stabilization, combined with inert elements such as concrete, wood, polymers, and geotextiles made with synthetic material or plant fibers. This work was carried out in order to evaluate planted species development and endemic species in the ecological succession, along the Paramopama river margin, located at the municipality of Sao Cristcvao, in Sergipe State, submitted to soil bioengineering techniques. Two types of geotextiles (Fibrax and Syntemax and 400 TF) arranged in two blocks and three treatments were tested, and the behavior of the vegetation and efficiency of geotextiles were observed for a period of 11 months monitored by the floristic survey. The abundance of the species Crotalaria spectabilis and Calopogonium muconoides was studied, and subsequently classified according to vegetation succession stage. The study revealed that the use of geotextile Syntemax 400 TF on the left bank promoted the greatest abundance of species, resulting in a greater vegetation cover, and consequently better protection of the slope. The geotextile Syntemax 400 TF was the most appropriate among the tested types, to promote the floristic recovery in the studied area and probably in those with similar soil-climatic conditions.
