Abstract: The meaning of the term biodiversity and the challenge of its evaluation are discussed in this paper. Requirements for its conservation within indigenous production forests are weighed in context of the homogeneity of rain forested landscapes for different organisms, and the impact of logging on biodiversity. A hypothesis, aimed at defining that method of management which can optimize both sustainable timber production and biodiversity conservation, is presented for testing by research.
