Abstract: The hill country of Taranaki and the hardwood/podocarp forest of the region are described broadly. Regeneration of the principal species is discussed. A pronounced lack of podocarp advance growth is considered to be neither a result of linear succession nor a phase in a successional cycle but is attributed to the effect of recent climatic variation. In the main the forest is, however, a climatic-climax association developed since the final cold period of the Pleistocene.
