Abstract: The folk landscape types are the natural and humanistic landscapes,which are named by the idiom of the aborigines based on appreciating,cognizing and evaluating the local environment condition for a long time of practice and live.The folk landscape types are the base of traditional utilization and management of landscapes.It reflected the eco-environment conditions of the time when the folk landscapes were formed.There have a high consistency between the Mongolian folk landscape classification and the traditional one. In this paper,the Mongolian folk landscape types in Ejina Banner of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region were studied from the early eighteenth century when the Turhut Branch of Mongolian settled down.The changes of environmental pattern in the Ejina delta were outlined by analyzing the folk landscape types of the water bodies,vegetation and sand dunes.The study on the development of the folk landscape types will be help to further research the regional environmental changes.The folk landscapes pattern in Ejina Banner revealed that the landscape types distributed mainly around the Gurinai Lake and the middle reaches of the West-Ejina-River in the last 300 a.This landscapes pattern also showed that the rangeland had temporal continuity.The landscape pattern of water body showed that there had many pools in the middle reaches of the east-and west-Ejina River before the 20^th century,besides the two terminal large lakes.Owing to the feeding of the abundant ground water,many large swamps formed in Gurinai and Wentugole Sumu.The ground water table was very high,and water was in high quality in the Ejina Banner.The rapid increase of landscape number of the well for livestock in 20~th century showed there was a worse trend of water environment in the whole region,because the river had changed into the seasonal one,and the river flow could not satisfy local people and their livestock.The landscape pattern of vegetation showed that the riparian forest(Populus euphratica and Elaeagnus Angustifolia forest) and the meadow was the dominative landscapes along the east-and West-Ejina River,and the shrub(Tamarix spp.) land was not the dominative one.And the reed(Phragmites communis)swamp,precarious(Achnatherum splends)meadow and the riparian shrub land of Haloxylon ammodendro was the dominative landscapes in Gurinai and Wentugole Sumu.The vegetation succession in the whole Ejina Banner was in its early stage.The sand dune landscape pattern in Ejina Oasis represents the basal landscape characteristics in the arid desert regions.
