Through the long-term plot study on the litter and its decomposition in the evergreen broad-leaved forest in Hangzhou for more than two years, it was resulted that the annual litter production was 5.85 t/hm~2, most of which was the fallen leave (79.5 percent) and the withered branches and fruits were far less (7.1 and 13.4 percent respectively). The dynamics of the fallen litter was shown as a curve of two-peak pattern which appeared in April and September each year. The half-life of the litter was 1.59 a. The decay rate of the litter attenuated as an exponential function. The annual amount of the nutrient returned to the ground through the litter was as large 223.69 kg/hm~2. The total current amount of the litter on the ground was 7.47 t/hm~2 .The decay rate in the first half of a year was 45.18%. The stand remained in the stage of litter increasing with time.
