Zusammenfassung: | The probability density functions have several forest applications, among which biometric data processing and modeling use. The objective of this study was to verify which probability density function best fits the cup diameter ([d.sub.copa]) and the quadratic diameter ([d.sub.q]), and also to analyze the effect of these variables on the forest structure. The study was carried out with a database of Araucaria angustifolia from a forest fragment, and also with Pinus taeda data from a forest plantation, both from the state of Parana. For the respective study areas, the crowns of the trees with digital orthophoto support were delimited. The evaluated functions were: Normal, Log-normal 2P, Beta, Gama, Weibull 3P and Weber. The function that best fit the variable [d.sub.q] for both species was Normal. For the variable [d.sub.copa], the function of Weibull 3P was the one that presented better adhesion to the Araucaria fragment and the Weber function for the Pinus forest plantation. Keywords: Orthophotos; Forest measurement; Pinus; Forest structure As funcoes de densidade de probabilidade tem varias aplicacoes florestais, entre as quais o tratamento de dados biometricos e uso em modelagem. O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar qual funcao densidade de probabilidade melhor se ajusta ao diametro de copa ([d.sub.copa]) e ao diametro quadratico ([d.sub.q]), e tambem analisar o efeito dessas variaveis na estrutura da floresta. O estudo foi realizado com uma base de dados de Araucaria angustifolia provenientes de um fragmento florestal, e tambem com dados de Pinus taeda de um plantio florestal, ambos oriundos do estado do Parana. Para as respectivas areas de estudo foram delimitadas as copas das arvores com suporte de ortofotos digitais. As funcoes avaliadas foram: Normal, Log-normal 2P, Beta, Gama, Weibull 3P e Weber. A funcao que melhor se ajustou a variavel [d.sub.q] para ambas as especies foi a Normal. Ja para a variavel [d.sub.copa], a funcao de Weibull 3P foi a que apresentou melhor aderencia para o fragmento de araucaria e a funcao de Weber para o plantio florestal de pinus.
