The results of field studies are presented in the form of phytocoenological table, by applying clustering techniques (WPGMA) and correspondence analysis (CA). Regrouping of the relevés, in comparison with the first year after fire, indicates that specific and more individual directions in vegetation succession have occurred. The situation remained unchanged, only for the rocky sites affected by the fire, at higher altitudes, in the zone of beech forests where the relevés were still standing separately on the graph, as in the previous season, indicating stability in floristic composition, probably caused by faster moving of the fire over the rocky substrate. The quantitative increase in the number of species and diversity index in comparison to the previous season was registered.
