Kings Plain National Park Vegetation 2000 VIS_ID 4741

Kings Plain National Park vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 2000 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. Kings Plain National Park approximately 50 km north west of Glen Innes. The full extent of the reserve is within the Inverell Shire, the County of Arrawatta and the Parish of Kings Plains.

The vegetation of Kings Plains National Park is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). Seven communities are defined based on PATN analysis and one specialised community is as circumscribed by previous surveys. Eight communities are mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and altitude. Most communities are of a Woodland structure, however Forests exist along with Shrublands. The distribution of communities is related to past disturbances, soil depth, soil type, physiography, aspect, slope, altitude, and protection from the south west. Many of the communities show considerable variation and intergrade along common boundaries. A number of specialised communities are thought to be endangered.
