Comments 9.11.20: This regional ecosystem was previously in the REDD version 4 for Einasleigh Uplands but has now been assigned a Cape York Bioregion regional ecosystem (3.11.13) following a re-assessment of the bioregional boundary. Occurs in wetter areas adjacent to the Wet Tropics boundary, in the far north of the bioregion.

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.

2 Superseded: Revision of the regional ecosystem classification removed this regional ecosystem code from use. It is included in the regional ecosystem description database because the RE code may appear in older versions of RE mapping and the Vegetation Management regulation.
