Longwood Landscape Zone is part of the Victorian Riverina bioregion and consists of gently sloping or flat riverine plain dissected by the Goulburn River (a Heritage River) and a series of creekline tributaries. Stream condition is moderate to poor. It encloses several wetlands of bioregional conservation significance. Over 95% of the native vegetation in the zone has been cleared for agriculture, which is mainly broad-acre grazing. Few significant reserves of public land occur in the zone. Roadside and creekline reserves retain important and high quality connective habitat for Grey-crowned Babbler, Squirrel Glider, Brush-tailed Phascogale, Buloke Mistletoe and some reptiles. Populations of aquatic species have mostly been lost.
