| Research Abstract |
Based on the inventory work at the canopy of a tropical montane forest of Doi Inthanon, Northern Thailand, 61 spp. of Spermatophyta, 21 spp. of Pteridophyta, 212 spp. of Bryophyta were recorded. These rich flora showed vertical habitat segregation within the forest and for Bryophyta, segregation between host tree species were recognized. Based on the detailed tree form survey using survey machine equipped laser range meter, we successfully estimated the biomass of epiphyte and the weight of growth substrates accumulated on the branches. Epiphyte distribution pattern along the branch/stem diameter and vertical position were also successfully demonstrated.
