Regional ecosystem 1.11.11
Vegetation Management Act class Least concern
Wetlands Not a Wetland
Biodiversity status No concern at present
Subregion 3, 1, (2), (2.8), (4.7)
Estimated extent1 Pre-clearing 17000 ha; Remnant 2021 17000 ha
Short description Triodia spp. hummock grassland on metamorphic hills (south)
Structure code Hummock Grassland
Description Triodia spp. hummock grassland with emergent Eucalyptus leucophloia and/or Eucalyptus leucophylla. Occurs as a minor component of a number of regional ecosystems in the central and southern parts of the bioregion. Not a Wetland. (BVG1M: 33b).
Fire management guidelines SEASON: Storm season to early dry season. INTENSITY: Low with occasional moderate. INTERVAL: 4 - 10 years. Ensure patches of long-unburnt vegetation are left (>30 years). Adjust intervals/frequency according to rainfall-drought cycles, fuel accumulation and previous fire history. INTERVAL_MIN: 4. INTERVAL_MAX: 100. STRATEGY: Burning with good soil moisture should ensure a patchy mosaic of burnt and unburnt vegetation should occur. Burn < 20% of the landscape. ISSUES: Seasonal rainfall is a key driver of fuel and therefore fire extent and frequency. Adjust fire regime according to wet season.
Comments 1.11.11: This vegetation community was previously mapped as 1.11.2x7a.

1 Estimated extent is from version 13.1 pre-clearing and 2021 remnant regional ecosystem mapping. Figures are rounded for simplicity. For more precise estimates, including breakdowns by tenure and other themes see remnant vegetation in Queensland.
