Figure 19. Frequency class <strong>and</strong> number of species <strong>in</strong> each frequency class <strong>and</strong> forest area<br />
The result of this current survey <strong>in</strong>dicates absence of constantly present species<br />
with<strong>in</strong> the three forest sites which leads to the conclusion that the forests have a<br />
heterogeneous species composition (figure 19). Croton macrostachyus <strong>in</strong> <strong>Mankira</strong>,<br />
Milletia ferrug<strong>in</strong>ea <strong>in</strong> <strong>Bonga</strong> <strong>and</strong> Bog<strong>in</strong>da are the most present species. In this study<br />
there was no s<strong>in</strong>gle tree or shrub species that is constantly present with<strong>in</strong> the three<br />
study sites. This is probably due to favorability of the environment to accommodate<br />
different species. Hence except for few <strong>in</strong>dividual species there was not much<br />
predom<strong>in</strong>ance everywhere. With regard to density, the most populous trees above 10<br />
cm diameter <strong>in</strong> <strong>Mankira</strong>, <strong>Bonga</strong> <strong>and</strong> Bog<strong>in</strong>da are summarized <strong>in</strong> the follow<strong>in</strong>g Table<br />
(Table 9).<br />
