The Mediterranean scrub of Southwestern Australia. We decided to focus on the ecoregion of Esperance mallee and the nullarbor plains xeric shrublands in Southwestern Australia. “Mediterranean Forests, Woodlands, and Scrub ecoregions are characterized by hot and dry summers, while winters tend to be cool and moist. Most precipitation arrives during these months” (“Mediterranean Forests, Woodlands, and Scrub Ecoregions”).
