The Eastern Australian temperate forests, or the Eastern Australian temperate and subtropical forests, [2] is a broad ecoregion of open forest on uplands (typically on the Great Dividing Range) starting from the east coast of New South Wales in the South Coast to southern Queensland, Australia.
The majority of Australia's trees are hardwoods, typically eucalypts, rather than softwoods like pine.

The Littoral Rainforests of New South Wales is a group of fragmented and endangered ecological communities found by the coast in eastern Australia. [1] Much of this seaside form has been destroyed by mining, tourist development or housing. It is threatened by extinction in the near future. [2] 90% of the 433 sites are less than ten hectares in ...
The largest extent of rainforest in Australia is in the Queensland tropical rain forests ecoregion (Wet Tropics bioregion). The estimated pre-1750 extent is 50,743 km 2. Prior to 1750, the largest area of rainforest and vine thicket was in the South Eastern Queensland bioregion, which is part of the Eastern Australian temperate forests ...

These Eastern Australian temperate forests have the greatest relief, the most rainfall, the most abundant and varied flora and fauna, and the densest human settlement.
