Abstract

A study of the pattern of distribution of six tree species in the Fung area showed that species subjected to least human and animal interference tended to show the same pattern intensity in many sites. On the other hand, highly distributed species exhibited pattern intensity which varied between different sites. Physical environmental patterns provide special habitats for a number of species. Biotic interference appears to be most important factor determining the general distribution and abundance of the tree species in this area. The present patterns shown by species is attributed mainly to historical influences
