Comparison of the Occurrence of Rot in Sawlogs from Regrowth and Mature Stands of Eucalyptus Diversicolor (Karri) (Report‪)‬

Introduction Karri (Eucalyptus diversicolor F.Muell.) is endemic to wet sclerophyll forest in the extreme south-west of Western Australia (WA). The karri forest covers an area of about 167 100 ha, where it grows in either pure stands or in association with marri (Corymbia calophylla (Lindl.) K.D.Hill and L.A.S. Johnson). Karri stands are interspersed with stands of jarrah (E. marginata Donn ex Smith), jarrah-marri, or treeless flats and swamps. Its occurrence, together with a description of past management of the karri forest, was reviewed by Bradshaw and Lush (1981).
