Riverine forests (edaphic vegetation type, fr)

Description

Although White (1983) treated riverine forests separately within the descriptions of regional centres of endemism, we decided not to distinguish floristic variants of riverine forests. Actually, it was in most situations not practical to map riverine forests. In the VECEA map, we mapped this vegetation type together with riverine woodlands (wr) and thickets (br) as riverine wooded vegetation (R).

Plant species

The main species recorded to occur within this vegetation type are listed below. Clicking the name of any of these species will open the page for that species on the Agroforestry Species Switchboard. Between brackets the English vernacular name of the species and the documented country distribution of the species (B=Burundi, E=Ethiopia, K=Kenya, M=Malawi, R=Rwanda, T=Tanzania, U=Uganda, Z=Zambia) is provided.

Based on information on species presence in national manifestations of vegetation types, each species was classified as a regionally dominant, characteristic, present or marginal species for a vegetation type (Read more ...)
