Abstract:

The Vatica mangachapoi forest is discovered first time during investigating of plant resource in rural of Hainans northeast area. It is important for studying the historical characteristic of distribution of forest and restoration of degraded ecosystem in this area. We think that this forest belongs to the tropical rain forest that remain lucky in this area based on comparing studies on plant composition, flora and plant community construction among this forest and other tropical rain forests in Hainan Island, but this forest has some difference from typical tropical rain forest because it has strong secondary characteristic and obvious dominant species.

Key words: Vatica mangachapoi forest, plant composition, plant community construction, plant flora, Hainan Island
