Queensland Regional Ecosystems Considering Girraween’s granite-dominated landscape it is not surprising that all of the Regional Ecosystems mapped as occurring within the park are those occurring on Land Zone 12 (hills and lowlands on granitic rocks) and Land Zone 3 (alluvium). Of the ten mapped Regional Ecosystems, seven are Land Zone 12 and three are Land Zone 3. Regional Ecosystem (RE) 13.12.3 is significant as it occurs only within Girraween NP (REDD 2009b) and its dominant species (Eucalyptus scoparia) is a vulnerable plant. Only two of the ten mapped Regional Ecosystems (RE 13.12.2 and 13.13.5) have a Biodiversity Status of ‘no concern at present’.
