Body

Management options of clearing, altering grazing pressure and burning, were applied to trees and shrubs in poplar box (Eucalyptus populnea) woodlands of the AristidalBothriochloa community. Mature tree populations were stable over 5 years from 1994. Density of the shrubs, broad leaf hop bush (Dodonaea viscosa) and yellow-berry bush (Maytenus cunninghamii), and the small trees, false sandalwood (Eremophila mitchellii), myall (Acacia pendula) and whitewood (Atalaya hemiglauca), were most dynamic. Greatest population changes occurred in 1999, after a wet autumn and spring.
