Strzelecki Ranges
| Strzelecki Ranges consists of moderate to steep slopes, deeply dissected blocks of alternating beds of sandstone, siltstone and shales, and swampy alluvial fans in the lowlands. The geology is of Mesozoic non-marine deposits covered with a veneer of younger Cainozoic deposits including newer basalts. The soils are mainly gradational textured acidic soils (Dermosols) together with friable red earths (Ferrosols).
The dominate vegetation is Wet Forest and Damp Forest on the higher slopes; and Shrubby Foothill Forest and Lowland Forest on the lower slopes. |  |
