  1. aAverage from Global Positioning System data
  2. bSites with elevation below 320 m above sea level are categorised as low (L), and sites with elevation at or above 320 m are categorised as high (H)
  3. cAverage of annual rainfall for the years 2000–2008 (samples were collected in 2008). Sites with mean annual rainfall below 800 mm are categorised as dry (D), sites with mean annual rainfall above 1100 mm are categorised as wet (W), and sites with mean annual rainfall between these extremes are categorised as moderate (M)
  4. dAdditional climate data obtained from SILO (Queensland Government 2014): total rainfall per winter month (TotRnW); average annual minimum temperature (AvTmin); and average winter minimum temperature (AvTminW)
