Regional ecosystem 1.11.6
Vegetation Management Act class Least concern
Wetlands Not a Wetland
Biodiversity status No concern at present
Subregion 3, (2.7), (2.2)
Estimated extent1 Pre-clearing 16000 ha; Remnant 2021 16000 ha
Short description Corymbia terminalis and Lysiphyllum cunninghamii low open woodland on folded limestones
Structure code Low Open Woodland
Description Corymbia terminalis and Lysiphyllum cunninghamii low open woodland with a mixed shrub layer and ground layer of Enneapogon spp. Occurs on outcrop on hills on strongly deformed calcareous pre-Cambrian sediments; skeletal soils. Not a Wetland. (BVG1M: 19b).
Fire management guidelines SEASON: Storm season to very early dry season. INTENSITY: Low with occasional moderate. INTERVAL: 4 - 10 years. Adjust intervals/frequency according to rainfall-drought cycles, fuel accumulation and previous fire history. INTERVAL_MIN: 4. INTERVAL_MAX: 10. STRATEGY: Ensure burns are undertaken across the landscape at a range of frequencies to create a mosaic of times since fire. Apply numerous small burns every year to achieve a mosaic and reduce risks of wildfire across vast areas of the landscape. Maintain burnt areas < 20%. ISSUES: Ensure areas with obligate seeders are left so that seed regeneration cycles can be maintained. Mixed shrubby woodlands contain fire-sensitive species and tend to grow in fire-sheltered areas.
Comments 1.11.6: This vegetation community was previously mapped as 1.11.1x1.
