“…Lord Howe Island is at the centre of a small oceanic archipelago, the Lord Howe Island Group, which is the eroded remnant of a shield volcano. The island began to form about 6.9 mya and quickly became a significant island, about 30 km in diameter and 1000 m elevation (Hutton 2008;Gilmore et al 2020;Williams & Jones 2022). Eruptions ceased at about 6.3 mya (Williams & Jones 2022) and since then the island has been eroding.…”

Currently, Lord Howe Island reaches 875 m elevation and is mostly densely forested with oceanic subtropical rainforest, but its offshore islets are small and almost treeless (Wilson 1994).…”
