Abstract: By applying landscape ecological approaches,the vegetation spatial pattern of Yantian District,Shenzhen City was analyzed.For the research patch shape index,fragmental index of patch shape,fractal dimension,landscape diversity index,evenness,relative richness and landscape dominance index were taken as the major indexes.Results show that the vegetation landscape in Yantian District has been well preserved in the process of urbanization,and diversified in type;its spatial pattern appears regular and consistent with the characteristics of its habitat;the district is high in community landscape heterogeneity,and features south subtropical valley rainforests,mountain evergreen broadleaf forests and mangroves;the valley rainforests and monsoon evergreen forests in this district are ecosystems relatively fragile,which deserve protection and development.
