Abstract

This chapter features the motivation and rationale underpinning the survey of selected types of the South African indigenous forests. It presents the main (and subsidiary) objectives of this exercise, including collection of new field data and the classification of the forest vegetation into forest subtypes and habitat-level communities. Three forest types, such as Albany Coastal Forests, Pondoland Scarp Forests, and Eastern Scarp Forests have been chosen to be featured in this study.
