Hut when judged from the standpoint of size a quite different im- 

 pression is obtained. By iliat standard, we should note that of the 1,160 

 lives only 826 (about 71 per cent) reach merchantable size (30 centi- 

 meters in diameter), that 409 of these (35 per cent of the whole number 

 or 50 per cent of those that may reach merchantable size) are of one 

 botanical family (the Diptcrocarpaceae) . 



Table II shows the species and number of the diptorocarps found 

 in the above mentioned plot.
