Tuatara: Volume 32, April 1993

Fig. 1. Pumice country of the central North Island, as it would have looked before the extensive Pinus radiata plantations of the mid 1920s. The flat valley floor, prone to summer frost, is dominated by Dracophyllum subulatum and the nearer slopes by Leptospermum scoparium. This landscape had been repeatedly burnt, and its last fires in the 1960s were followed by introduced pasture. Tihoi, 1959. D. R. McQueen
