%X The forest facies with Aucoumea klaineana of the Congolese littoral has a very heterogeneous floristic diversity in its specific composition, space and life period. Though A. klaineana is the characteristic element and dominating of this facies, its dynamics knows a regressive evolution in correlated to the development stage. To the present stage of his dynamics, one passes gradually from an almost monospecific facies with A. klaineana to a facies with variable heterogeneous complexity. A. klaineana is the dominant species with 46.4% of stand, followed by Trichilia heudelotii, Carapa procera and Sacoglottis gabonensis (22% of 1,186 individus having d.b.h. >= 10 cm in the experimental plot). Like the local forests, the studied facies highlights Fabaceae with an index of relative diversity of 18.31%. Lastly, a concomitant analysis of the calculated ecological indices and forest dynamics observed underlie that the facies monospecific is only one short transitional stage. This stage is recognized as being the first step of the installation of the typical ombrophilous forest of the Congolese littoral.
