Quarrying for constructions has left many bare rocky slopes, in order to recreate biodiversity, artificial revegetation methods have been widely used in the ecological restorations. The study selected several rocky slopes in Zhoushan City for vegetation survey, recorded vegetation species and habitat factors in different sample plots. Based on vegetation data, community parameters such as vegetation diversity indices were computed for statistical analysis, then the relationship between the habitat factors and the slope re-vegetation were revealed. The results showed, the changes of vegetation community diversity in different habitats were obvious, furthermore, for the four habitat factors, significant correlations between slope aspect and vegetation diversity, also slope position and vegetation diversity had been found. Thus, revegetation of rocky slope must be based on characteristics of different local habitats, which can make significant contribution to maintain species diversity and community stability of vegetation.
