Abstract

SUMMARY Detailed vegetation maps, showing the distribution of five associations (Violo-Corynephoretum, Polypodio-Empetretum, Festuco-Galietum maritimi, Polypodio-Salicetum, Empetro-Ericetum) in four study areas, together covering 64.6 ha of the sand dunes of Vlieland, were compared with contour-maps, giving the elevation (above Amsterdam ordnance datum) in 2.5 m intervals. A quantitative picture is presented of the associations over the four elevation classes: 10.0 m and the results are briefly discussed. The preference of each association for a particular elevation range is clearly demonstrated.
