The Darwin Coastal, an interim Australian bioregion, is located in the Northern Territory,[1][2] comprising an area of 2,843,199 hectares (7,025,700 acres)[3] of central Arnhem Land in the Top End of the Northern Territory.[4]
The bioregion is generally flat, low-lying country, drained by several large rivers. Vegetation communities include eucalypt forest and woodlands with tussock and hummock grass understorey. Land use is mixed, with urban development around Darwin, Aboriginal land, pastoral leases and conservation reserves. Major population centres are Darwin and Palmerston.[4]
