Pictorial Identification Key: Native Trees of Australia's East Coast

This identification key refers to 449 native trees & shrubs listed on the Trees of Australia's East Coast Web Pages.
Key Information: The basic categories, under which trees and shrubs are listed, employ leaf or leaflet length as the primary attribute, followed by differentiation of simple or compound leaf forms, type of leaf/leaflet margins (edges), and other distinguishing features. Identifying trees and shrubs by length of the leaf blade (lamina) has its limitations, as leaves of some species vary considerably in size. This is especially true for compound leaf forms where leaflet size variations are common. For this reason, the leaf length measurements employed in this tree identification key are;
Average dimensions of larger leaves/leaflets of mature trees or shrubs, which have been measured excluding the stalk. If your lamina (leaf blade) measurements fall into the border regions of major leaf length categories, check listings in both relevant groups.
