A Physiognomic Classification of Australian Rain Forests
Abstract
Outside Australia, a valuable basis for the classification of tropical vegetation was provided recently by Beard (1944, 1946) and was. further developed by Fanshawe (1952), Richards (1952) and Beard (1955). Recent efforts to classify Australian vegetation have, for Rain forest, scarcely proceeded beyond the formation level, e.g. only Temperate Rain forest, Tropical Rain forest, Monsoon (Rain) forest, and Subtropical Rain forest have been recognized (Wood 1949, Beadle & Costin 1952, Williams 1955). These were all listed as subformations, but the present work suggests that Tropical, Subtropical and Temperate Rain forests are best regarded as distinct formations. This separation is in accordance generally with the ideas of Schimper (1903), and in the case of Subtropical Rain forest and Temperate Rain forest, with recent suggestions by Richards (1952, p. 368) and Robbins (1957) respectively.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
