Bassiania, that low lying plain surmounted by a chain of steeply rising granite mountains linking Victoria and Tasmania during the Pleistocene, was one of the few extensive land areas of the Greater Australian continent lost as a consequence of the Flandrian transgression. Today, nothing of it remains but the Bass Strait islands. Flinders Island, Cape Barren Island and Clarke Island, comprising the Furneaux Group, together with the Hogan and Kent Groups, are found in the east of the Strait, while the western chain of islands comprises King Island and the Hunter Group
