Er. Fuls et al., THE GRASSLAND COMMUNITIES OF THE FOOTSLOPES IN THE NORTHERN ORANGE-FREE-STATE, SOUTH-AFRICA, South African journal of botany, 59(5), 1993, pp. 485-490
A phytosociological analysis of the grassland vegetation of the footsl
opes of the Heilbron-Lindley-Warden-Villiers area, northern Orange Fre
e State, South Africa, was conducted. Releves were compiled in 37 stra

archical classification, plant-ecological description and ordination o
f the plant communities are presented.
