Abstract
An analysis of the vegetation of the Golden Gate Highlands National Pa rk is presented. Releves were compiled in 90 stratified random sample plots. A TWINSPAN classification, refined by applying Braun-Blanquet p rocedures, revealed nine distinct plant communities. A hierarchical cl assification, a description and an ecological interpretation of the pl ant communities are presented.
