[edit] Rationale

This map is © Commonwealth of Australia, it is thought to be fair use in the article Flora of Australia for the following reasons

The scheme shown in the image is used to describe a key concept (vegetation types in Australia) in the article.
A free replacement is not available and the data set used to make the image is most likely subject to copyright.
The Commonwealth of Australia allows reproductions for non-commercial purposes, which is compatible with its use on Wikipedia as a free encyclopedia, but may not be the case for third parties
The image has been made obsolete by a new data set and while the additions did not significantly alter the scheme illustreated here, this is not the most recent version of the scheme.
