Figure 1

A map of topographic habitats of the Korup 50-ha plot, Cameroon, plus distribution maps for the most abundant specialist canopy tree species of each habitat. The habitats, shown in the top, left panel, are: depression (white), flat (light gray), slope (blue), gully (dark gray), ridge (green), as defined in Chuyong et al. ([2011]). Contour lines are at 2-m intervals; north is to the left. Oubanguia alata (Lecythidaceae) is a specialist of the depressions, Strombosia pustulata (Olacaceae) of flat-terrain, Uvariodendron connivens (Annonaceae) of slopes, Diospyros iturensis (Ebenaceae) of gullies, and Tabernaemontana brachyantha (Apocynaceae) of the ridge.
