Abstract

The population structure and spatial distribution patterns of 5 dominant populations in the Illicium lanceolatum-Choerospondias axiliaris community of Tiantong（29°48′N，121°47′E） were investigated by using every-tree measuring method，time specific method for life-table analysis and contiguous grid method. Spatial distribution and spatial association of individuals in different layers of 5 dominant populations were analyzed. The total relative basic area（RBA） of the 5 species was 74.85%. The size distribution index （SDI） of I.lanceolatum，Machilus thunbergii and M. leptophylla was negative and relatively low，except for C. axiliaris and Acer olivaceum which had a positive value. The species occupied different vertical spaces. The spatial distribution varied among intra- and inter-specific cohorts in the different layers and size classes and showed complex multilevel distribution patterns. The I. lanceolatum and M. leptophylla had an aggregated distribution，C. axiliaris and A.olivaceum had an uniform distribution and M. thunbergii had a random distribution. There were differences in spatial associations among intra- and inter-specific cohorts in the different layers and spatial scales examined. The first layer and the second layer of I. lanceolatum weren’t repellent at different scales，which showed that it was strongly tolerable to the shade. The spatial associations indicated that I. lanceolatum and M. thunbergii were significantly positively associated. The negative association among cohorts increased and the positive association was decreased as the scales increased. By occupying different horizontal and vertical spaces and having different life history strategies，the dominant species of the community could co-exist，resulting in rich biodiversity in the studied community. ［Ch，5 tab. 23 ref.］
