- Abstract
- Laing Island terrestrial vegetation has been studied during two stays at the King Leopold III Biological Station. Five other nearby coral cays were also investigated. Twenty-seven vegetation releves were carried out following the Braun-Blanquet method. Ninety-four parallel soil samples were taken and analyzed for pH(w), organic matter content and major cations (P, K, Na, Ca, Mg) content. Seven plant communities have been identified and their limits transferred onto a map.
