Summary: Contrasting coastal ecosystems, dune and restinga, in Peró Beach, Cabo Frio, State of Rio de Janeiro altered the correlations between the spatial patterns of the Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) and the diversity of plants. We recorded, during rainy and dry seasons in 2014, a total of 35 plant species. Ipomoea imperati, Stenotaphrum secundatum, Hydrocotyle bonariensis and Remirea maritima were the most common. Higher plant species richness was found in restinga over dune in both seasons. Considering that coastal environments occupy large areas around the world, we consider that the AMF-plant relationships evidenced here may contribute to conservation of these environments;
