This is an ABSTRACT ONLY.Fire management practices aimed at biodiversity conservation are often in conflict with hazard reduction requirements. Particularly in protected areas where such conflict of interest exists, the question is asked: what are the ecological thresholds within which fire should be managed?enFire management practicesBiodiversity conservationHazard reduction requirementsEcological thresholdsEastern coastal fynbosCape Floral KingdomFire frequencyFire rotationLeucadendronShrublandsMaturation rateProteasThreshold of potentialYouth phaseFiresProteaceae juvenile periods and post-fire recruitment as indicators of minimum fire return interval in eastern coastal fynbosArticleKraaij, T., Cowling, R., Van Wilgen, B., & Schutte-Vlok, A.
