Abstract
Lists of woodland vascular plant species from 78 ancient woods in a study area situated in central Lincolnshire, England, were used to test the effectiveness of various strategies for selecting woodland nature reserves. Strategies in relation to a fixed area of reserves, fixed number of reserves, and response to opportunities were examined. No simple strategies were found which guaranteed the best results, but certain guidelines emerged which may improve the complex judgements which are unavoidable in practical conservation.
