The effects of the leaf phenology of canopy trees on the reproductive success of an entomophilous, self-incompatible shrub, Staphylea bumalda DC. were examined in a deciduous broad-leaved forest in northern Japan. The amount of light reaching a particular understory shrub from spring to early summer was determined by the leafing date of surrounding canopy species. Variation in leafing date of canopy species affected flower and fruit production by the understory shrub. These results suggest that reproductive success of understory shrubs depends in part on the leaf phenology of canopy trees.Key words: phenology, deciduous broad-leaved forest, fruit set, resource limitation.

The tropical seasonal rainy evergreen broad-leaved forest vegetation of the Cucphoung National Park has been classified and the distribution of plant communities has been shown on the map using the relations of vegetation to geology, geomorphology and pedology. The method of vegetation mapping includes: 1) the identifying of vegetation types in the remote-sensed materials (aerial photographs and satellite images); 2) field work to compile the interpretation keys and to characterize all the communities of a study area; 3) compilation of the final vegetation map using the combined information. In the classification presented a number of different level vegetation units have been identified: formation classes (3), formation sub-classes (3), formation groups (3), formations (4), subformations (10) and communities (19). Communities have been taken as mapping units. So in the vegetation map of the National Park 19 vegetation categories has been shown altogether, among them 13 are natural primary communities, and 6 are the secondary, anthropogenic ones. The secondary succession goes through 3 main stages: grassland herbaceous xerophytic vegetation, xerophytic scrub, dense forest.

Vegetation cover and environmental factors were studied in the system of karts mires in the broad- leaved forest zone in Tula Region, Central European Russia. Mires are formed in the sinkholes and characterized by rather low anthropogenic disturbances. These mires are characterised by floating peat mats and variety of vegetation communities which are differ by ecological conditions (water levels, acidity and nutrition). Development and growth of floating mats change water and mineral feeding that leads to succession of vegetation communities.
