The Nullarbor region is a vast gently undulating limestone based plain through Western Australia
and South Australia (Figure 1). The climate is arid or semi-arid, with hot dry summers, cold winters
and annual rainfall between 180 and 270 mm. There is little coordinated surface drainage. Soils are
predominately reddish shallow calcareous loams and sands, often with a stony mantle. Habitat types
include woodlands dominated by mallee-form eucalypts, casuarina . . . . .
