We are very excited to be joined by Professor Stephen D. Hopper AC as our guest speaker for the November webinar!

Professor Hopper will summarise close to 60 years of visiting the Leeuwin Naturaliste Ridge, and focuses on rare plant surveys conducted in the 1980s when substantial components of the flora were undescribed. For example, of the 50 species of Caladenia (Orchidaceae) now known in the Augusta Margaret River Shire, about half were named by Prof Hopper and colleagues, notably Andrew Brown. Local endemics are a feature of the Ridge. Rare communities include those of inland granite outcrops, each with their own mix of rock outcrop and gnamma (rock pool) species. Also some rare hybrids are known. The fire ephemeral Eremosyne pectinata is from an ancient lineage allied to rainforest shrubs and trees of eastern Australia and South America. Discoveries of new weeds is still occurring. Lastly, a completely fresh perspective on the flora emerges from walking together with Wadandi people, the Webb family in particular.
