Abstract
A quantitative phytosociological survey was conducted in 184 sampling stands in various climatic zones of Himalayan forests of Pakistan. Based on floristic composition and importance value, 24 different communities and 4 monospecific forest vegetations were recognized. Quantitative description and their population structure are presented. Many communities show similar floristic composition, however, differ in quantitative values. Vegetation of forests ground flora is also presented.
