Karri forest

Karri forest

Karri forest is tall open forest of "Eucalyptus diversicolor" (Karri), one of the tallest hardwoods in the world. It occurs only in the south-west corner of the Southwest Botanical Province of Western Australia, in the Warren biogeographic region. The Warren region is also known as the Karri Forest Region, but this is a misnomer, as only about half of the region is vegetated with Karri forest.
