Potential distribution of Mimosa Bush (Acacia farnesiana) in Victoria

Potential distribution produced from CLIMATE modelling refined by applying suitable landuse and vegetation type overlays with CMA and LGA boundaries.

Overlays used

Land Uses:
Forestry; horticulture perennial; pasture dryland; pasture irrigation

Ecological Vegetation Divisions
Heathland; grassy/heathy dry forest; swampy scrub; lowland forest; forby forest; high altitude shrubland/woodland; granitic hillslopes; rocky outcrop shrubland; western plains woodland; basalt grassland; alluvial plains grassland; semi-arid woodland; alluvial plains woodland; ironbark/box; riverine woodland/forest; chenopod shrubland; chenopod mallee; hummock-grass mallee; lowan mallee; broombush whipstick
Map showing the potential distribution of Mimosa Bush

Colours indicate possibility of Acacia farnesiana infesting these areas.
Red = Very High
Orange = High
Light Green = Medium
Dark Green = Likely
In the non-coloured areas the plant is unlikely to establish as the climate, soil or landuse is not presently suitable.
