Australia has a globally recognised biodiversity hotspot, the southwest of Western Australia, but this unique eucalypt-dominated flora is threatened. This project will gain new insights into the evolutionary processes that generate and maintain such diversity, their vulnerability; and how the iconic eucalypts came to dominate the Australian landscape.

澳大利亚有一个全球公认的生物多样性热点，西澳大利亚州的西南部，但这种独特的以桉树为主的植物群受到威胁。这个项目将获得新的见解，产生和维持这种多样性的进化过程，它们的脆弱性;以及标志性的euclitts如何主宰澳大利亚的景观。
