SBM Banksia marginata wet scrub
Vegetation Condition Benchmarks Scrub, heathland and coastal complexes SBM Banksia marginata wet scrub Community Description: Banksia marginata wet scrub is a dense wet scrub dominated by Banksia marginata usually occurring along creek lines and forest fringes within south-west buttongrass moorland. Common and abundant species include Melaleuca squarrosa, Leptospermum scoparium and sometimes L. nitidum and L. lanigerum. Gahnia grandis is usually present in the understorey and Empodisma minus or Calorophus species together with Bauera rubioides can form a dense tangle around the tree stems. There may be a few emergent trees of Eucalyptus nitida. This is the appropriate benchmark to use in assessing the condition of the listed Banksia marginata wet scrub community (Schedule 3A, Nature Conservation Act 2002).
