摘要：

Epiphytic vascular plant and soil samples were collected from recently fallen trees in tropical wet forest at La Selva and lower montane rain forest at Monteverde. Six of 14 orchid species examined supported typical orchid mycorrhizae, and all 4 ericaceous species examined supported ericoid mycorrhize. Of the remaining 50 species, representing 14 families, 9 species in 6 families showed low levels of vesicular-arbuscular colonization. Canopy derived soils were highly organic, acidic, and high in extractable P. -from Authors
