Abstract

Vertical distribution of Sorbus species and species composition of their habitats were investigated at Mts. Norikura in Gifu Prefecture. Three species of Sorbus were observed in the area. S. matsumurana was mainly distributed at edge of the Pinus pumila forest at snowpatch site in alpine belt. S. sambucifolia was mainly distributed in the Pinus pumila forest at wind-swept site in alpine belt. S. commixta was mainly distributed at the mantle community of the coniferous forest in subalpine belt. However, these three species were observed at the same place, the upper subalpine belt （alt. 2500-2250m）. In this place, the hybrid individuals of them were identified. Moreover, the species composition of plant communities including Sorbus species was elucidated.
