Cloncurry

Cloncurry refers to a plant species associated with the Cloncurry region of northwest Queensland, Australia, a semi-arid landscape dominated by Mitchell grass plains, brigalow scrub, and seasonally flooded floodplains of the Flinders and Cloncurry river systems. The Cloncurry district supports a distinctive assemblage of dryland plants adapted to the extreme temperatures, irregular rainfall, and heavy cracking clay soils of the inland tropics. Plants of this region include drought-tolerant grasses, spinifex, mulga acacia, and various annual and perennial wildflowers adapted to boom-and-bust cycles of rainfall. The region's flora reflects both the antiquity of Australian arid-adapted lineages and more recent connections to tropical flora via monsoon rainfall pulses. Several endemic or near-endemic plant species have been recorded from the Cloncurry area, reflecting the biogeographic distinctiveness of the Mount Isa Inlier geological formation which underlies much of this region. Conservation pressures include pastoral grazing, feral animals, invasive pasture grasses, and changes in fire regimes that affect native plant community structure.
