A m 2 plot of the community con2 sists of 32 families, 54 genera and 62 species, of which 32 species are tropical elements, 21 pan - tropical and 7 sub - tropical, and the others are extensive species. An evergreen appearance and complicated vertical structure are found in the community. There are tree individuals which are over 115 m in height in the plot, and 185 shrub individuals in the 100 m 2 plot. Most herb species are offspring of trees and shrubs, the true grasses are few. The organization structure of the community is similar to that of the zonal vegetation. The Shannon - Winner index is about 4, the community evenniss and Simpson ecological dominance Most of the dominant population of the community are of clump distribution. The community would evolve toward the climax vegetation with human disturbance reducing. Key words : Evergreen broad - leaf forest ; Secondary forest ; Community analysis
