Abstract: Let $mathcal{M}_g$ be the moduli space of compact connected hyperbolic surfaces of genus $ggeq2$, and ${mathcalB}_{g}subset{mathcalM}_g$ its branch locus. Let $widehat{mathcalM}_g$ be the Deligne-Mumford compactification of the moduli space of smooth, complete, connected surfaces of genus $ggeq2$ over $mathbbC$. The branch locus ${mathcalB}_g$ is stratified by smooth locally closed equisymmetric strata, where a stratum consists of hyperbolic surfaces with equivalent action of their preserving orientation isometry group. Any stratum can be determined by a certain epimorphism $Phi$. In this paper, for any of these strata, we describe the topological type of its limits points in $widehat{mathcalM}_g$ in terms of $Phi$. We apply our method to the $2$-complex dimensional stratum corresponding to the pyramidal hyperbolic surfaces.
