Distribution of Woody Vegetation along altitudinal ranges from Abay Gorge to Choke Mountainrnwas conducted in East Gojjam Zone of Amhara Regional State, North West Ethiopia, with aim ofrnassessing floristic composition, species diversity and structure of woody plant species in thernstudy area. Systematic line transect sampling method was applied to collect woody vegetationrndata. Accordingly, 56 quadrats each with 400 m2 (20 m X 20 m) at a distance of 50 m. a. s. l.rnalong a transect line for tree and shrubby species and subquadrats of 5 m X 5 m within the mainrnquadrats were laid to record saplings and seedlings of woody plants and soil sample. Vegetationrnclassification was performed by using R Software packages. Four clusters were identified andrndesignated as local plant community types. Each community was named after two or three of therndominant tree or shrub species in the group. Shannon-Wiener diversity index was used torncompute species richness and evenness of the communities. Ecological dissimilarity ofrncommunities was determined by Euclidean distance. CCA was used to correlate pH and altitude,rnwhile FSO was used to correlate environmental factors. DBH, Density, Frequency and IVI wererncomputed to describe the structure of vegetation. A total of 120 woody plant species in 90 generarnand 48 families were identified. Fabaceae and Asteraceae were the most dominant families withrn16 and 14 species and with 11 and 10 genera each respectively. Shrubs were the dominant lifernforms. Thirteen endemic species were recorded, from which 4 are new records for FEE. Altitudernand soil pH have great impact in vegetation distribution. Future research directions andrnrecommendations were suggested for the sustainable utilization of the vegetation.rnKey words/Phrases: Floristic Composition, Plant Community, Species Diversity, WoodyrnVegetation, Tree, Shrub, Endemic species, Soil pH
