The closed, evergreen forest of 363 ha was sampled by means of 62 circular plots of 0, 04 ha, distributed in a grid pattern. TWINSPAN classification separated the forest into regrowth forest with two forest types, and mature forest with four forest types. The types differ from each other in terms of floristics, overall size of the trees and regeneration, stand density and basal area, and diameter class distribution of selected species. The types reflect both site conditions and recovery from (or absence of) disturbance. The regrowth forest ofthe lower, eastern portion have probably recovered from earlier settlements of the Venda tribe who practised iron ore smelting and agriculture towards the end of the 19th century. A species list is appended. © 1993 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
