Old-growth forests are unique, usually having multiple horizontal layers of vegetation representing a variety of tree species, age classes, and sizes, as well as "pit and mound" soil shape with well-established fungal nets. [19] As old-growth forest is structurally diverse, it provides higher-diversity habitat than forests in other stages.
This is a list of areas of existing old-growth forest which include at least 10 acres (4.0 hectares) of old growth. Ecoregion information from "Terrestrial Ecoregions of the World".

[5] Technically, the forest is in the latter ...
