Methods

The assemblage data were from the Chinese national forest research station in Heshan, Guangdong Province. The research station is located in Heshan City, Guangdong Province, with coordinates as 112°54'E, 22°41'N, with an average altitude of 80 m. The climax community is subtropical monsoonal broad-leaved evergreen forest in the study area. Data were collected from two sites, with forest types as native and coniferous forests, respectively. At each site, there is a permanent plot in size of 30*30m, which is further divided into nine 10*10m subplots; in each 10*10m subplot, two 5*5m small subplots were set up at diagonal positions to investigate shrubs. All individuals in the subplots were investigated and the number of individuals for each species in the plot of 30*30m were counted. The datasets include observations in 2005 and 2007.
