Abstract

Based on quadrat sampling，community structure and species diversity of a Quercus variabilis forest on Mount Zijinshan in Nanjing were analyzed. Results showed that there were 63 families，106 genera，and 127 species of vascular plants. The community could be divided into three layers of tree，shrub，and herb with species richness（S），Simpson’s （D），and Shannon- Wiener’s （H） indices in the shrub layer greatest followed by the tree and herb layers. Shrub indices were S = 16.285 7 ± 1.018 7，D = 0.827 3 ± 0.025 5，H = 2.174 2 ± 0.111 7；tree indices were S = 10.142 9 ± 0.999 2，D = 0.776 9 ± 0.021 7，H = 1.793 9 ± 0.095 4；and herb indices were S = 5.571 1 ± 0.465 4，D = 0.687 3 ± 0.032 2，H = 1.294 3 ± 0.079 5. The evenness （J） indices of the tree layer were largest （0.793 3 ± 0.017 5），while those of the shrub （0.782 2 ± 0.029 3） and herb layers （0.777 4 ± 0.027 9） followed. Overall the floristic interims were obvious with abundant species diversity in this community of mixed vascular plants.［Ch，4 tab. 11 ref.］
