wikipedia says scrubs can have trees up to 8m while heath they limit to 2, but actually they divide scrubs into 8 subtypes, two of them heaths: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrubland For shrubs 2–8 m high the following structural forms result: - dense foliage cover (70–100%) — *closed-scrub* - mid-dense foliage cover (30–70%) — *open-scrub* - sparse foliage cover (10–30%) — *tall shrubland* - very sparse foliage cover (<10%) — *tall open shrubland* For shrubs <2 m high the following structural forms result: - dense foliage cover (70–100%) — *closed-heath<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heath_%28habitat%29> * - mid-dense foliage cover (30–70%) — *open-heath* - sparse foliage cover (10–30%) — *low shrubland* - very sparse foliage cover (<10%) — *low open shrubland* cheers, Martin
