Summary: 'Study of the impact of prescribed burning on the understorey of mixed eucalypt forest in the southwest of Western Australia revealed little change in composition There were however, marked changes in structure as the vegetation recovered from the effects of fire. The persistent species regenerating from lignotuberous root-stock reovered most rapidly, whereas fireweeds regenerating from seed only regained their former level in cover contribution in the third year.'
