Stand structure and species diversity are two useful parameters for complex assessment of forest biodiversity, and provide important information for management and decision making for appropriate silvicultural system. For this purpose, five one ha plots were selected randomly in homogeneous ecological units of beech-hornbeam type in Nav-e Asalem, Gilan province. In order to determine complex structural diversity index (SI) in the studied forest type, uniform angle, mingling and DBH dimensions difference indicators were calculated. Also in order to determine density of trees, the nearest neighbors distance index was used. According to the results, the average value of nearest neighbors distance index was calculated to 5.58 meter. Mean uniform angle index was 0.52, which indicates clumped distribution of trees. Mean mingling index (0.45) indicates moderate mixture of the studied mixed stand. The amount of DBH dimensions difference index was 0.47, indicates moderate difference between trees diameter at breast height. The complex structural diversity index which presents three dimensions of structure, including diversity of spatial pattern, species diversity, and diversity of DBH dimensions) was calculated to 0.475. This value confirms a high level of tree diversity. The results of this study provide key information for management and maintaining of tree diversity in the studied mixed beech-hornbeam stand. Also with monitoring and management of tree diversity level we can reduce the negative impact of natural and human factors.
