Streblus-A phananthe Parang.—lIn order to give an idea of the floristic 
composition of other types of the parang, the following three plots are 
tabulated. Only trees which are over 4 meters in height are enumerated. 
Smaller species will be mentioned in a detailed description. ‘The area 
of each plot is approximately 160 square meters. 
DESCRIPTION OF PLOTS. 
Plot A is on an old river terrace, 3$ kilometers inland and at an 
altitude of 70 meters. It has a gentle slope toward the river. Plot B is 
in a similar situation at 23 kilometers inland and at an altitude of 50
