%X This study presents a first evaluation of the occurrences of vegetation fires of anthropicorigin in the Protected Areas (PA) of the Brazilian Amazonia (AMZ). The PAscomprise ~2.1 x 106km2, or ~42.2% of AMZs~5 x 106km2. Federal Conservation Units (FCU) account for 585.6 x 106km2, State Conservation Units (SCU) for 559.8 km2and Indian Territories (IT) for 1,077.8 x 106km2. The Conservation Units (CU) include parks, forests, ecological stations, biological reserves, units of sustainable management, etc., and are under the National System of Conservation Units, SNUC, while the ITsare under the National Foundation for the Indian, FUNAI. These PAswere recently compiled into a digital baseeby ISA, InstitutoSócioambiental, from Sao Paulo. INPE, the Brazilian National Space Institute monitors fires in satellite images since the late 1980s, and the NOAA-12 AVHRR data provides a particularly long and reliable database of 16 years, until July/2007. Combining these unique two sets, an overall analysis of fire events in the PAswas obtained. For the 674 PAs, 473 of them, or 70.2%, were affected by fire when using just the detections made with the more consistent AVHRR/NOAA-12 series. Using fire data from all satellites, these values rise to 617 areas with fires, or 91.5%of them. For the percentage of the areas with NOAA-12 fire occurrences inside them, the 137 FCUsshowed the highest value, 79.6%, followed by the 159 SCUswith 77.4%, and by the 378 ITswith 78.4%. The extent of the fire effect in the PAsaffected varies widely, from cases when over 70% of the area shows fires almost every year, to those when only isolated fires are identified at the boundary of the area. Occurrences of illegal man-caused fires in the Protected Areas of Amazonia present a definite case for scientific, environmental, ecological and administrative concern.
