树高是一个重要的生态和造林特征，许多热带森林的高度多样性与物种高度的广泛范围有关。作为成虫大小的一个度量，所有直径的树干直径的第95百分位>= 0.1 x最大观测直径（D95(0.1)）与物种丰度无关，与最大高度高度高度相关。在马来西亚Pasoh森林保护区50 ha的森林动态样地上，测定了573种至少20棵树直径>= 0.1 ×最大观测直径的D95（0.1）。这些树种占样地所有树木（直径为1 cm）的98.3%，分为5种不同高度的生命形式；灌木（D95(0.1) < 5 cm），小枝（5 cm）
Tree stature is an important ecological and silvicultural characteristic and the high diversity of many tropical forests is associated with a broad range in species stature. A measure of adult size, the 95th percentile of trunk diameter of all diameters >= 0.1 x maximum observed diameter (D95(0.1)) was found to be independent of species abundance and highly correlated with maximum height. D95(0.1) was determined for 573 species with at least 20 trees with diameters >= 0.1 x maximum observed diameter in old-growth, lowland evergreen forest on the 50-ha forest dynamics plot at Pasoh Forest Reserve, Malaysia. These species, comprising 98.3% of all trees >= 1 cm diameter in the plot, were then divided into five life forms of differing stature; shrubs (D95(0.1) < 5 cm), treelets (5 cm
