Forest Trees of Australia

By CSIRO Researchers

An essential reference guide

Forest Trees of Australia is the essential reference for observing, identifying and obtaining information on native trees. It describes and illustrates 300 of our most important indigenous trees, which have been carefully selected for their environmental significance, their importance to the timber industry, or their prominence in our landscape.

This new and thoroughly revised edition has been fully updated throughout and includes seventy-two treatments of additional species. New maps and photographs show us a wonderfully diverse range of forests, from mangrove swamps, tropical regions and deserts, to alpine areas and majestic stands of temperate forests. A colour section illustrates some of the major forest types of Australia and bark from a diverse range of species.
