Native forest is divided into eight national native forest types defined by dominant species and structure (Acacia, Callitris, Casuarina, Eucalypt, Mangrove, Melaleuca, Rainforest, and Other native forest), and Commercial plantations has three types (Hardwood, Softwood, and Unknown or mixed species). The category Other forests comprises all forest that is not native or commercial plantation.
