%X This article combines data from historical records, recently published maps and a field survey to document changes in the vegetation of a pastoral area in south-western Queensland. Examples are given where wildfire, ringbarking,clearing and grazing by both rabbits anddomestic stock have had major influences on the vegetation. The greatest change to the trees and inedible shrubs has been one of density. Evidence for changes in the herbaceous layer is less conclusive but it is likely that there has been a reduction in density of desirable perennial grasses and an increase in less palatable species.
