The afromontane forests of Transkei, southern Africa. II: A floristic classification

Abstract

A floristic TWINSPAN classification of the forests where basal area was used as the quantitative parameter is presented. Four associations are distinguished and each is discussed in terms of forest condition and location at regional level. ’n Floristiese TWINSPAN-klassifikasie van die woude waar basale oppervlakte as die kwantitatiewe eenheid gebruik was, word voorgelê. Vier assosiasies word uitgeken en elkeen word bespreek in terme van woudtoestand en ligging op streeksvlak.
