Abstract

The distribution of forest trees in Uganda appears to be reasonably well known, at least so far as occurrence in flora-areas is concerned (Eggeling & Dale, 1952; Anon. 1952 et seq.; Hamilton, in press; Hedberg, 1957). A number of well-marked patterns of distribution can be identified. Pollen diagrams now available for Uganda show that there have been, at least locally, very large changes in vegetation during the last 15.000 years. In this paper, the significance of distributional patterns is considered in the light of pollen-analytical and other evidence of vegetational and climatic change.
