To evaluate the density of carrá (Huberodendron patinoi) individuals in the Alto and Medio Baudó area, a diagnostic sampling was used, in which 197 plots of 10x10 m were established. A total of 423 individuals of the species were recorded, of which 12 were characterized as seed trees located in the communities of Bellavista Bubasa, Echeverri port and Araceli port. Regarding the state of development, 134 brizales, 47 latizales and 242 fustales were reported. Diametric classes I, II, and VII were the most representative with 181, 80, and 56 individuals respectively. Of the total number of registered trees, only 39 had phenotypic malformation. Brosimun utile, and Dictiocarion platiceparum were the species that were mostly associated with carrá. The population density calculated from the sampling area reported a total of 215 individuals per hectare, data that account for the presence of the species, which allowed to conclude that at least for this area of Baudó no indices of depletion were identified.
