Commersonia prostrata is a prostrate, mat-forming shrub with trailing branches to 2m long and is a pioneer species which appears after fire, flooding or clearing. It occurs disjunctly in south-east Australia, from the Gippsland Lakes hinterland in Victoria to the Tomago sandbeds north-east of Newcastle in NSW and is known from only 31 sites - 24 in Victoria and seven in NSW. In Victoria, Commersonia prostrata is found in the Rosedale-Stradbroke-Providence Ponds area of central Gippsland. In NSW, the majority of known sites occur near Tallong, Penrose and Goulburn on the Southern Tablelands; and also near Newcastle. Main threats are swamp drainage, reduced fire-frequency, weed invasion, browsing by native and introduced mammals and sand mining. Photo: Greg Steenbeeke
