National Estate areas of relictual species is a polygon coverage derived using vegetation mapping and a digital elevation model (DEM). Polygons represent areas identified by a workshop of experts as being surrogates for areas rich in relictual or Gondwanic species (ie. species that exhibit taxonomic remoteness and/or phylogenetic primitiveness).

The areas identified are rainforest and isolated mountain tops.
