What reading level is A Montane Rain-Forest; a Contribution to the Physiological Plant Geography of Jamaica book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The degree to which many of the above species are present only as stunted individuals of 4 to 8 feet in height is indicated in plate 19 and plate 20. Ilex obcordata is a common shrub sometimes attaining to the height of a tree and, with Eugenia alpina, exhibiting the smallest leaves of any trees in the region (see plate 20 A) . A form of Palicourea crocea is coramon, together with. Miconiarigida, Wallenia crassifolia, and Lisianthus latif alius. The Compositse contribute several shrubs to the r...idge vegetation, notably Vernonia divaricata, which forms extensive thickets in open stands of forast, particularly on the main ridge between Sir John and Mossman's Peaks, Eupatorium dalea, Vernonia arbor- escens, Senecio fadyenii, and Eupatorium critoniforme. One of the most striking plants of the ridges is Lobelia mariagon, which has a woody stem branched once, growing to a height of 7 feet and bearing tufts of leaves at the ends of its branches, with its spikes of dark-red flowers.
The exposure of the ridges to high wind is probably accountable for the absence of tree-ferns, as just below the most exposed of the ridges, in forest of similar character, may be found Cyathea furfuracea and Cyathea insignis.
