Abstract
Seventy small-scale samples of cryptogamie vegetation at uniform height of 9 species of trees were compared and arranged in 3-dimensional ordination according to their similarity with each other. Most species showed distinct patterns in the ordination. Certain environmental factors (e.g. host species, pH and water-holding capacity of bark, and exposure to light) also showed distinct patterns, indicating that these have significant influence on the distribution of cryptogams.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
