Abstract
The influence of feral pigs on the composition of grassland communities on the east flank of Mauna Loa, Hawaii, was studied for the one year period from July, 1971, to August, 1972. Actual pig-disturbed areas as well as artificially scalped plots were included in the study. The succession on those plots was measured by both frequency and cover measurements. It was found that pig digging greatly enlarges the component of introduced species in communities with a former high percentage of native species.
