Abstract

We investigated 1)the relationships between species richness of herbaceous plants and environmental variables of landscape scale, 2)species distribution pattern and characteristics of species which are likely to depart from nested distribution pattern at 12 fragmented forests in Kyoto city in order to contribute to the ecological urban greenery planning. Consequently, there was a strong relationship between species richness and forest area. Species distribution was significantly nested and perennials and anemochores, endozoochores relatively departed from nested pattern. Moreover, species recorded at one fragmented forest did not significantly depart from nested pattern. Thus, it was deemed a basically acceptable option to emphasize the conservation of the fragmented forests at the upper level of nested subsets.
