Abstract: The broad-leaved evergreen forests in Quanzhou, Fujian province, consist of south subtropical rain forest and south subtropical mountain laurislvae.The analysis of floristic compositions, life form, leaf quality, structure and distribution of community demonstrates some distinctive characteristics and landcape of south subtropical rain forest, with Cryptocarya chinensis and Machilus thumbergii as dominants, from under 450 m above sea level.These communities mainly dominate with Castanopsis carlesii, distributing between 450 m and 900 m above sea level, and it reserves some characteristics of south subtropical rain forest.These communities dominate with Castanopsis eyrei as chief edificato, distributing between 900m and 1400m above sea level.It is of community characteristics of middle subtropical laurisilvae.

摘要： 泉州的常绿阔叶林包括南亚热带雨林和南亚热带山地照叶林。通过对这两种植被类型的区分成分、生活型、叶的性质以及群落的结构与分布的分析,说明海拔450m以下具有较明显的以厚壳桂、红楠等为优势种的南亚热带雨林的特征和景观;海拔450~900m主要以米槠等拷类为优势种的群落,但仍有南亚热带雨林的某些特征;海拔900~1400m以甜槠为主要建群种的群落,属于中亚热带照叶林的群落特征。
