Abstract
A Nouelia insignis community has been found recently in Hutiaoxia Gorge in the Henduan Mountainous Region, Southwest of China. The com- munity grows in the low area close to the river, between 1750 and 1850 m, extending 8-10 km along the gorge. N. insignis itself is an early primary form of the Compositae, and a relict plant of the Tertiary, as well as one of China's endemic species. The commu- nity is distinguished by its floristic composition, com- munity ecology, and biogeography. The origin of the N. insignis community is probably of great antiquity; its classification position within the vegetation of China is reviewed.
