[Objective] To explore the sprouting phenomenon in the tropical mountain rainforest by investigating species composition, spatial distribution, and factors related to the sprouting characteristics.[Method] Taking the woody plants (DBH ≥ 1cm) with sprouting phenomenon in a montane tropical rainforest plot with an area of 60 hectares plot in Jianfengling of Hainan Province as the objectives of study, the quantitative characteristics of sprouting plants were analyzed and their spatial distribution characteristics were outlined. In this study, the sprouting plants were subdivided into two types:branches and sprouts.[Result] There are 260 species of woody plants with sprouting phenomenon, belonging to 58 families and 142 genera. The amount of families, genus and species of sprouting plants accounted for 93.5%, 91.6% and 89.7% of the total plants respectively.There are five species with the most sprouting stems, including Psychotria asiatica, Cryptocarya chinensis, Neolitsea ovatifolia, Lasianthus trichophlebus and
