Vegetation-types identified on these maps were saltmarshes (all species combined), mangroves (all species combined), and seagrasses. In the case of seagrasses, the following species or families were mapped: Zosteraceae (including Zostera capricorni, Zostera muelleri, and Heterozostera tasmanica), Posidonia australis, Halophila spp. (Halophila ova/is and Halophila decipiens) and Ruppia spp. (Ruppia megacarpa, Ruppia polycarpa and Ruppia maritima).
