Landform: Depressions adjacent to low rises.
General Condition: No weeds were present on this vegetation type but there were some low impacts from
Donkeys. This vegetation type was adjacent to natural fire breaks or contained scattered rock piles.
Consequently one of the sites had a relatively high cover of the fire sensitive shrub Sarcostemma viminale.
Observed fire impacts were low.
Species of Conservation Significance: No species of conservation significance were encountered for this
vegetation type.
