Abstract: The characteristics of the vegetation landscapes in the core area in the Natural Reserve of Pangquangou were analyzed by the acreage, the perimeters, the lengths and the breadths, which were obtained from the map of the vegetation landscape types, of the landscape patches. The results show that the distribution of the landscapes and the patches are obvious belt-quality. The diversity and the evenness of the landscape are low. In addition, four indexes, which are the rate of the length and the breadth, the elongation, the circularity, the rate of the perimeter and the length, were tried to analyze the characteristics of the patches. The results show that the four indexes are definite ecological meaning in the analysis of the landscape characteristics.

Key words: vegetation landscape, patch, Landscape-diversity
