Resumo:[EN] It¿s common sense to usually recognize some concepts as being very simple and accessible. Often, this could lead to a reductionist way in which some problems are regarded and understood. In plant ecology, many concepts are volatile and in nowadays we are using some of them mainly as standard definitions. But in the nature, there are no standards. Only a continuum flux of energy and stable instability that would imply caution and attention in the interpretation of ecological groups of plants. In this work we try to sensitize and pay attention to the complexity of some concepts in plant ecology, and to focus on halophytes, as an example of our intention
