s:1067:"TI Use of vegetation maps to infer on the ecological suitability of species using central and western Kenya as an example: part II: Tree species lists for potential natural vegetation types AU Kindt, R. AU van Breugel P AU Lillesø J-P B AB Vegetation maps show classifications of plant communities based on differ-ences in floristics (composition and relative abundances of species), physio- gnom c structure (such as growth form, he ght, ground cover, type of leaves) and seasonal act vty patterns (van der Maarel 2005, Box and Fuj wara 2005). Potential natural vegetation (PNV) has been defined as the vegetation struc - ture that would become establ shed f all success onal sequences were com - pleted w thout nterference by man under the present cl mat c and edaph c (so l) cond tons, nclud ng those created by man (Tüxen 956, Mueller-Dom - bois and Ellenberg 1974, Box and Fujiwara 2005). This definition makes it clear that PNV s not necessarly the or ginal vegetaton as the ste conditions may have changed after the orginal vegetation was removed. ";
