| Abstract: | Summary A systematic sample of 416 stands of vegetation was subjected to Indicator Species Analysis which classified the stands into sixteen Groups. For practical reasons these were amalgamated into ten Interpreted Groups which are described in terms of species representation and cover. The distribution of stands in the various Groups is described and is related where possible to environmental factors. |
