I heard Peter Andrews mention a CSIRO study of an unspoilt intact Australian forest remnant where it was found there was only a limited number of eucalyptus per the hectare. Would anyone have any knowledge of the particular study as I'd like to read its contents.

If you google Webb and Tracy, formerly of CSIRO Rain Forest Division, they have shown in studies both in Australia (E.torelliana (Cardagi) now in the Genus Corymbia, and in New Guinea,(Eucalyptus degulpa) was only one in a biodiverse mix of more than 100 different tree species per acre with only one specimen occurring in that mix.
