Abstract

A phytososiological analysis of saplings was made using quadrate method in the six years
old logged-over forest at Sekundur, North Sumatra. The results showed that within 0.2
hectare plot, 123 species belonging to 79 genera and 36 families were recorded. Three
community types were recognized, i.e. Agrostistachys longifolia - Teijsmanniodendron
sarawakanum, Macaranga hypoleuca - Macaranga pruinosa and Endospermum
malaccensis - Macaranga javanica communities. The structure and floristic composition
of each community varies and they were related primarily with the forest distur¬bance.
There were found that the number of both species and individuals of sapling decreased
with increasing of the forest disturbance
