Based on the data on Castanopsis carlesii population in Wuyishan Nature Reserve, Fujian, the curves of loserate, survival, mortality rate, and survival function of the population were made for static life table to analyse the population dynamics. The population had a peak of mortality atⅡage class, and survival curve of the population belongs to the type Ⅲ of Deevey, representing that the mortality rate of young individuals was highand was followed by a low and stable mortality. The functions used in staticlifetable could well explain th estructure and dynamics of Castanopsis carlesii population.
