Regeneration process was studied within twentytwo gaps produced from natural falling of trees in a semivirgin mixed forest of oriental beech in Iran. The area of the openings varied between 163 m2 and 1683 m2, caused by falling of 1 to 6 trees. Natural regeneration depended on the gap size, and was established within the openings with different compositions.
