Geography comments: the reserve is "in South Central Luzon" (province unclear) and "covers and area of 4,245 ha"
plots ranged in elevation from 400 to 410 m

Environment
Habitat: tropical/subtropical dry broadleaf forest

Altered habitat: secondary forest

Protection: forest reserve

Substrate: ground surface

Habitat comments: "The climate is tropical monsoon, with two pronounced seasons... dry from January to April... this area was degraded last 1940s. After planting Mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla King) in this site in the early 1940s, it was protected from further degradation by human activities. Also the secondary forest area near the Mahogany plantation was regenerated naturally"
