Restoration ecology is globally well-known as an important activity in efforts to preserve and revert the Environmental degradation as well as to moderate the climate change. Despite being a young discipline, the Restoration ecology has rapidly advanced on its Scientific Foundations and theoretical-practical methods. The aim of this paperwork was to evaluate the methodology of the restoration ecology in order to identify the most important native species in the upper Andean forest. Initially it was carried out an evaluation of the different areas of disturbances according to the methodologies, also it was stablished the potential species to be ecologically preserved. This study was achieved in three different type of grounds and variables such as height, coverage and number of the branches of the plant species were studied. For the ground study was fulfilled an analysis of the main components which showed a correlation among the height, the coverage and number of the branches of the plants for agricultural usage; however, this agricultural usage of the plants didn’t show a relationship among the variables, thus we concluded that the ground was under other type of disturbances in the past. Finally we noticed thatOreopanax floribundumis an alternative to initiate restoring processes for these types of disturbance.
