Search vegetation management regional ecosystem descriptions
This is our vegetation management regional ecosystems description database (VM REDD). Use this lookup tool to search for:
- vegetation management classes (endangered, of concern, least concern)
- regulated grasslands (woody grassland structure category) and unregulated grasslands (grassland structure category)
- structure categories and other regional ecosystem information for use under the vegetation management framework.
How to use the lookup tool
You can search by:
- regional ecosystem number, if you know it
- regional ecosystem details and description.
Or you can download a spreadsheet of all the data and search within it.

Vegetation management regional ecosystem details for 7.3.50
| Regional ecosystem | 7.3.50 |
|---|---|
| Vegetation Management Act class | Of concern |
| Short description | Melaleuca fluviatilis +/- vine forest species open forest to closed forest on alluvium fringing streams |
| Structure category | Mid-dense |
| Structure code | Open Forest |
| Description | Melaleuca fluviatilis (tea tree) +/- vine forest species, open forest to closed forest. Alluvium fringing streams in drier areas. Riverine. (BVG1M: 22c). Vegetation communities in this regional ecosystem include: 7.3.50a: Melaleuca fluviatilis open forest and woodland, often with Casuarina cunninghamiana, Eucalyptus tereticornis, Lophostemon suaveolens, Corymbia intermedia and Nauclea orientalis. Stream fringes. Riverine. (BVG1M: 22c). 7.3.50b: Low notophyll vine thicket with emergent Melaleuca fluviatilis. Coarse gravel beds in fast flowing streams. Riverine. (BVG1M: 22c). |
| Fire guidelines | SEASON: Mid- to late dry season. INTENSITY: Low. INTERVAL: Occasional. INTERVAL_MIN: 50. INTERVAL_MAX: 100. STRATEGY: Burn surrounding areas when fire is likely to have limited impact on gallery forest. Allow fire to carry into these communities as it has a role in defining the ecotone. Do not target for burning. ISSUES: Burn when conditions are moist and that peat is waterlogged to limit the likelihood of peat fires. |
