| Abstract | The floristics composltlon, vertical, and horizontal structure of eastern Lanjak Entimau Wildlife Sanctuary was investigated in an attempt to understand the ecological state this forest. Five transects was established from Katibas and Bloh rivers. The transects were assessed to obtained floristics composition, stand density, diameter size distribution, and vertical vegetation layers. For class diameter between 5 cm and 30 cm dbh 37 families and 169 tree species and for trees with dbh > 30.1 cm 33 families and 101 tree species were recorded. Dipterocarpaceae was only represented by 9% of the total tree enumerated. The results showed that Euphorbiaceae dominated the area in term of number of species. However, the important species were Xanthopf?yllum sp. 4 and Shorea parvifolia. The largest and tallest trees recorded include Shorea parvijOlia, Shorea s,yzbemma, KoompaJ.ria ex,-clsa, Koompassia malat'Cnssis, and DipterOimpus t"rinitus. Generally diameter size distribution for all species combined followed the reverse-J curve which is typical of uneven aged forests. Horizontal and vertical data revealed that the forest structure characteristics suggest a continuous vegetation growth. |
