Abstract
In the preceding papers of this series (1) it has been shown that within the glaciated area the physiographic results of glaciation offer the best general key to the pattern of natural vegetation. The results of glaciation, in turn, have been largely influenced by preglacial conditions.
In analyzing the composition of the natural vegetation of Ohio certain groups of associations were distinguished, to wit, Prairie, Ash, Oak, and Beech. Each group includes several related classical associations as described by Cowles (2) and others.
