Forested Ranges
The limestone and greywacke ranges are largely cleared but significant
remnants remain. The warm humid climate supports a richly diverse
rainforest. Some species reach their southern limit here and others
are found further south only in coastal settings. Species are
listed in order of their establishment after disturbance (succession).
Early sucessional species will predominate in the early stages of
forest establishment and gradually give way to later sucessional
species as the canopy grows higher. Only the characteristic
species are listed.
