There is only one native species of deciduous tree, the fagus or
deciduous beech (Nothofagus gunnii) which is endemic to the alpine
regions of Tasmania. A very poor (non-Zuik?;) image can be found at the
Tasmanian national parks site:
http://www.parks.tas.gov.au/veg/alpine/fag.html
The default background of most of the site (ie lose the /veg...etc) has
a close-up picture (not photo) of fagus leaves down the left hand border.
