Abstract
AbstractThe vegetation associated with a snow patch at Mt Field in Tasmania is described and mapped. Seven distinct vegetation types were found to be related directly to topography and hence to the patterns of snow accumulation, snow melt and soil drainage. The fjaeldmark found where snow lies longest is unusual for Tasmania and may be the product of past climatic events and a peculiar parent material. At the generic level there exists a high similarity with the snow patch flora of the Australian Alps.
