Predicted species succession due to water level fluctuations on the Magela floodplain during the 1983–1984 wet–dry cycle. The dominant species in each community is indicated by ** and the next dominant by * (A = annual; V = vegetative; P = perennial; S = short-lived propagules; D = long-lived propagules; I = propagules established in areas devoid of standing water; II = propagules established in standing water) (from Finlayson et al., 1990b).
