a cave entrance isn't a landform. The issues with "vegetation related" would persist. Wikipedia says about landforms: "A *landform* is a geomorphological <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geomorphology> unit, and is largely defined by its surface form and location in the landscape. As part of the terrain <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrain>, a landform is an element of topography <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topography>. Landform elements also include land <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land> such as hills <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill>, mountains <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain>, plateaus <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plateau>, canyons <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canyon>, valleys <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valley>, seascape <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seascape> and oceanic waterbody <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterbody> interface features such as bays <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bay>, peninsulas <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peninsula>, seas <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea> and so forth". If we did what you propose it would still be arbitrarily divided as there would be landforms in "vegetation related" and landforms in "water related". cheers, Martin
