Abstract

From June to October 2011，niche breadth，niche similar proportion，and niche overlap from 0.030 0－0.140 0 （L1k） and 0－0.140 0 （Lk1） were determined for Pyrola calliantha and 15 primary companion species in the Taibai Mountains between 2 253－2 928 m based on frequency，population，and coverage. Results showed that （1） niche breadth of Pyrola calliantha，Saussurea licentiana，Carex rigescens，Fragaria vesca，and Viola verecunda were high （values above 1.0）；whereas niche breadth of Prunella vulgaris，Hypericum per-foratum，Acanthopanax senticosus，Anaphalis sinica，and Parasenecio forrestii were low （values of 0）. （2） Only 16 species-pairs （15.2%） had a niche similar proportion above 0.50. Also，the similarity ratios for species with a high niche breadth and Pyrola calliantha were greater than that for species with a small niche breadth. （3） Niche overlap between 15 main species exhibited resource sharing in a relatively stable state. In addition，when paired with species having a small niche breadth，Pyrola calliantha，with （L1k）＞（Lk1），had a lower niche overlap and had a lower （Lk1）.［Ch，8 tab. 16 ref.］
