This study was conducted to examine the richness of sapling plant species at Hutan Lipur Sg. Tua, Selangor, Malaysia and to determine the effects of altitude on the distribution and abundance of sapling plant species. This research was conducted in a 400 m2 plot (each) at the altitudes of 265 and 452 m above sea level (a.s.l). The field survey resulted in a total of 376 individuals comprising 43 genera and 48 species. The richness of sapling plant species at 265 m altitude was 3.0841, which was higher than 452 m altitude (3.0557). There was no significant difference in species richness between the two elevations. In terms of species similarity, only 20.8% of species occur in both elevations which might be due to small variation in species diversity in these locations.
