Reynold Falls Nature Recreation Area, Tasmania, Australia
A short trail, the “King Billy Track”, leads to the tallest measured
Athrotaxis selaginoides
(King Billy pine). It is 38 metres in height
1
. Although the forest is located next to a busy tourist centre it seems to be in relatively natural condition though there has clearly been some
A. selaginoides
logging before the protection of the area. The forest lies at an altitude of 850-900 metres. The dominants of the canopy, which is at about 30 metres, are
Nothofagus cunninghamii
(myrtle beech) and
Atherosperma moschatum
(southern sassafras). Tree species diversity is low and tree identification easy. Undergrowth is very sparse.
