2005
Bartha, D.
The author classified the species of the Hugarian dendroflora into a new life form system which was elaborated by using the following principles: scale of lignification, ramification and type of shoot system, duration and type of the leaves, reproductive ability from root-shoot. This life form system, which can be applicable for all the tree and shrub species in Europe apart from two palm species, contains 31 life form types, and are divided into two main groups. Phanerophytes can be classified into four main groups such as trees, shrubs, lianas and epiphytes while chamaephytes having two main types dwarf shrubs and sub-shrubs. The author identified the life form types for the 189 indigenous species of the Hungarian dendroflora, and the distribution of the life form types in the main habitat types. Relation between the distribution of the life form types of the Hungarian and the European dendroflora is also discussed.
