The Scots Pine stands were just starting to develop in 1970. adjacent open heathland. All sites sampled were evi- dently Corema-dominated heathland in 1930 (Figure 1). Site 1, an open heathland approx. 90% open in aerial view with scattered White (Pinus strobus L.), Red, and Scots pine and site 5, the adjacent Scots Pine stand was located at °N, °W. Site 2, the other open heathland, also approx. 90% open, and site 6, the adjacent Scots Pine stand was located at °N, °W. Site 3, an open heathland, 60% open in aerial view, with Red Pine 50 years old was located at °N, °W. Site 4, the semi-open 60-70 year-old Red Pine stand, approximately 20% open in aerial view was located at approximately °N, °W. At each site the habitat was delineated and within it a transect was selected at random using a compass line derived from random numbers. Presence and cover was recorded for each species in each of 20 one m2 quadrats at 5 m intervals along the transect line. Cover was esti- mated as Vi the surface area of each species rather than a simple aerial view and thus could exceed 100% of the surface of the square metre sampled. This method.
