  • Biography/ Background

    State Herbarium building

    My current position is Senior Botanist at the State Herbarium of South Australia. I am editor of the Herbarium's publications, including the journal Swainsona (formerly Journal of the Adelaide Botanic Gardens), one of five botanical journals published by Australian Herbaria, and the new, fifth edition of the Flora of South Australia; the previous edition was published in 1986, but is long out-of-print. I also have research interests in vascular plants, botanical nomenclature and botanical history.

    See here for a detailled list of other books published by the Board of the Botanic Gardens & State Herbarium. Latest news on the activities and publications of the State Herbarium can be found on the blog of the Friends of the State Herbarium of South Australia.

    Cryptandra sp. HiltabaI have studied biochemistry, botany and organic chemistry at the Free University of Berlin and the Botanischer Garten und Botanisches Museum Berlin-Dahlem (Germany), Monash University (Melbourne) and The University of Melbourne. My post-graduate training was undertaken at the School of Botany, The University of Melbourne, and the National Herbarium of Victoria, Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne, supervised by Prof. Pauline Y. Ladiges and Dr Frank Udovicic. The Ph.D. thesis was entitled "The Australian stellate-haired Rhamnaceae: a systematic study of the tribe Pomaderreae".

    After that I worked for over two years at the National Herbarium of Victoria on the Flora of Australia treatment of Rhamnaceae, in collaboration with Dr Frank Udovicic & Mr Neville G. Walsh (National Herbarium) and Drs Barbara L. Rye & Kevin R. Thiele (Western Australian Herbarium, Perth). This post-doc was supported by a grant from the Australian Biological Resources Study (ABRS), Canberra.

  • Research Interests

    The main focus of my research is taxonomy and nomenclature of vascular plants, in particular the plant family Rhamnaceae. I am interested in the relationships of the Australian endemic species with plants from other regions, such as Malesia, the Pacific, New Zealand and South America. I approach these questions with both morphological and molecular methods in collaboration with colleagues from Australia and overseas.

    In 2018, I received a 3-year Research Grant from the Australian Biological Resources Study, Canberra (ABRS), to perpare a new phylogeny of the Australian Rhamnaceae, revise the genera Cryptandra and Spyridium, and complete the FLORA OF AUSTRALIA treatment of the family.

    This work is done in collaboration with Michelle Waycott, Ed Biffin & Kat Ticli (AD), Francis Nge (PhD student, The University of Adelaide), Kevin R. Thiele (Perth), Frank Udovicic & Neville G. Walsh (MEL), Korjent van Dijk (The University of Adelaide) and Catherine Clowes (PhD student, The University of Melbourne). Other collaborators on Rhamnaceae are in Australia: Barbara L. Rye (PERTH); Argentina: Diego Medan (BAA), Lone Aagesen (SI); China: T. Yi (KUN); France: Y. Pillon (LIMO); Germany: H.H. Hilger (B) & J. Kalwij (KIEL); UK: H.C.F. Hopkins (K).

    I also have a strong interest in botanical nomenclature and the history of Botany.

     Stenanthemum leucophractum

    Ramnaceae Juss. is a medium sized family of about 1100 species and includes tropical and temperate trees, shrubs and some vines. It is cosmopolitan and species grow on all continents, except Antarctica.

    In Australia there are currently over 250 species recognised in 23 genera.  There is a high level of endemism with approximately 90% of Australian species occuring only on the continent.  A significant number of species (approx. 30%) are classified as nationally rare or threatened.

    The native Australian species can be divided into three groups:

    The first group contains 21 species from 10 sub-tropical and tropical genera: Alphitonia Reissek ex Endl. (5 species), Colubrina Rich. ex Brongn. (1), Dallachya F.Muell. (1), Emmenosperma F.Muell. (2), Gouania Jacq. (2), Rhamnus L. (1), Sageretia Brongn. (1), Schistocarpaea F.Muell. (1), Ventilago Gaertn. (3), Ziziphus Mill. (4), most of them only represented by one or two species in Australia. The monotypic genus Granitites Rye, although restricted to granite outcrops in south-west Western Australia, is most closely related to Alphitonia.

    The second group comprises only one genus, Discaria Hook., with 2 species restricted to the mountainous regions of south-eastern Australia and Tasmania. Together with relatives in New Zealand (1 species) and South America (5 species), this genus is an example of the Gondwanan connection of the southern floras.

    The third group is composed of endemic species from southern, temperate to semi-arid regions of Australia. They form the tribe Pomaderreae Reiss. ex Endl. All members of the tribe have stellate hairs on leaves and/or flowers, a feature that distinguishes them from all other Rhamnaceae species.
    Pomaderreae is restricted to Australia and New Zealand.  It comprises over 230 species in eight genera: Blackallia C.A.Gardner (2 species), Cryptandra Sm. (c. 55), Papistylus Kellermann, Rye & K.R.Thiele (2), Polianthion K.R.Thiele (4), Pomaderris Labill. (c. 75), Serichonus K.R.Thiele (1), Siegfriedia C.A. Gardner (1), Spyridium Fenzl (c. 45), Stenanthemum Reissek (c. 30) and Trymalium Fenzl (13). The only genus occuring in New Zealand is Pomaderris with 8 species.

    There are four naturalised species of Rhamnaceae in Australia from the genera Ceanothus L., Hovenia Thunb., Noltea Rchb., and Rhamnus.

    C&W manufacturer's plateCollecting films in the traditional format (35mm, 16mm & 8mm) is one of my past-times. I am a member of the Cinema and Theatre Historical Society of Australia (CATHS), which publishes the journal Cinema Record and holds an annual Cine Collectables Fair in Melbourne (this year on 14 April). I am also a contributor to the film collector’s magazine Reel Deals. In Adelaide, I used to be involved in the Photographic Preservation Society (PPS), now incorporated into the Australian Photographic Collectors Society (APCS). PPS coordinated the annual Adelaide Photographic Market, a tradition that is continued by APCS.

    My interests are also the history of cinemas and the technology of film projection, especially of the Sydney projector manufacturer Cummings & Wilson, who produced motion picture projection equipment from 1920 to the 1960s. Associated with C&W was the Australian sound equipment manufacturer Raycophone.
