Abstract: The paper studied the landscape patterns in Huian, a coastal county of Fujian Province. By selecting the diversity index,dominance index and evenness index,the landscape patterns in the county were analyzed. The result showed that the landscape pattern was mainly the farmland and the diversity index of forestry areas was the maximum, but the environment quality was rather poor. There were 7 032 patches in the studied region, and the largest was 11.2 km2, the smallest was 420 m2, this showed that the difference of patch areas was very large. With the increasing disturbances, the landscape diversity decreased and the dominance increased.
