The forests of Sorkhakesanjabi village with area of 1645 ha located in Eslam Abad city, Kermanshah province, Iran wereselected. 23 sample plots with rectangular shape (40m*50m) were selected and the species, origin of species and canopy percent were recorded. Broun Blankeh method based on percent of canopy area of dominant species was selected. Results showed that two main forest types identified were Quercus-Daphne and Quercus-Prunus-Cratagus. Quercus-Daphne is coppice and ranging from 1820-2322 and Quercus-Prunus-Cratagus ranging from 1890-2130 that Cratagus aronica and Purunus tortuosa are high forest and Q. persica is coppice.
