  • To explore the changes in the characteristics of the understory vegetation community after natural recovery of rubber plantations which were withdrawn from operation, to provide scientific basis for the disposal of rubber plantations returned to natural forests in Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park. A quadrat survey was made to assess the stand structure, growth status, species composition, species diversity and community similarity of the rubber plantation understory vegetation community by using a space-for-time substitution approach in different restoration years（0, 3, 7 a）. The results show that the rubber plantations can form a vertical structure of trees, shrubs and grasses in 3 years and 7 years with an increase in restoration year. The species in the tree, shrub and herb layers of the understory of the rubber plantations are good in growth condition, and the trees in the tree layer are in good condition. The number of tree plants in the tree layer was maximum after 7 years of restoration.As the restoration years increase, the species composition of the understory plants in the rubber plantation tends to be more complex, and the community structure is stable; the species diversity in the shrub and herb layers tends to increase and then decrease, and the species diversity in the tree layer increases. In different restoration years, the dominant species in the tree, shrub, and herb layers of the understory of the rubber plantations changed greatly. In the three different restoration years, the community similarity between the tree and shrub layers under the rubber plantations is low, while the community similarity in the herb layer was high. Generally speaking, the understory plants of naturally restored rubber plantations are in good growth conditions, species diversity increases, stand structures tend to become complex, and the community structure is stable.
