Product description:Introduction The area described totals approximately 1200 km2, and includes the eastern and southeastern suburbs of Melbourne, the Dandenong Ranges, the Harkaway Hills and the Silvan and Macclesfield districts. It coincides with the 1:50 000 military maps of Monbulk and Ringwood, which were used as a base. Topographically, the area is dominated by the Dandenong Ranges, composed of Devonian volcanics; these are flanked to the east and west by a maturely dissected hilly terrain of Lower Palaeozoic sedimentary rocks, and to the south by a hilly terrain of granodiorite. In the southwestern part of the area, the coastal plain of the Brighton area merges with the Carrum Swamp to the south.
