Vegetation survey of Batavia Downs, Cape York Peninsula [Queensland].
1991
Nelder V.J. | Clarkson J.R.
A vegetation survey of the 201,507 ha Batavia Downs property on Cape York Peninsula was undertaken in 1989 and 1990. Fifteen map units were identified and shown on a 1:100 000 vegetation map. Detailed structural and floristic data was gathered for 108 0.05 hectare sites. The most extensive vegetation types on the property were woodlands dominated by Eucalyptus tetrodonta and associated Eucalyptus species (map units 3,4,5 and 6), which covered approximately 65 percent of the area. A list of 630 native or naturalised species previously recognised as rare or threatened is reassessed. A list of the naturalised alien species was compiled, and a brief discussion of plants in the study area that are toxic to stock is included.
