Abstract: Schima superba is a superior fire protection tree in the south of China.The knowledge of the community characteristics of S.superba biological fire-protection forest belts is crucial to speed up the construction of biological fire-proofing project.This paper presented a preliminary study on phytocoenosis physiognomy,community diversity and community structure of the different patterns of S.superba biological fire-protection forest belts in Yongkang and Jiande in Zhejiang Province.The results indicated that the life type spectrum and the leaf quality had no significant difference between S.superba biological fire-protection forest belts and primary S.superba evergreen broad leaved forest.The S.superba biological fire-protection forest belts had low biodiversity index and it was in monodominant community.The community vertical structure of the belts was quite simple and has only shrub and herb layers,which did not make full use of the space.

Key words: Schima superba, biological fire-protection forest belts, community characteristics
