Abstract | Remnant vegetation in agricultural landscapes is assumed to contain the majority of biodiversity, although few Australian studies have considered the contribution made by the surrounding production matrix. In this study, herbaceous plant communities from Brigalow (Acacia harpophylla) remnants and adjoining areas of the matrix were sampled to determine differences in plant species composition at the core and edge of four distinct land management categories. Nineteen sites consisting of Brigalow |
