Endangered

摘要

Callitris preissii and Melaleuca lanceolata forest and woodland is a threatened ecological community restricted to the Quindalup coastal dunes on white calcareous sands and sometimes brown sands near Perth. The community's dominant plant species include the Rottnest Island pine (Callitris preissii), the Rottnest teatree (Melaleuca lanceolata) and occasionally tuart (Eucalyptus gomphocephala). Although these species are found scattered in Western Australia's southwest they only co-occur as a communitywith a group of mainly coastal-related shrubs, including basket bush (Spyridium globulosum), the spiky prickle lily (Acanthocarpus preissii), berry saltbush (Rhagodia baccata) and a suite of annual herbs including the pretty blue lace flower (Trachymene coerulea) in locations around Perth.
