STOP PRESS!!
We wish to congratulate our member Marion Anstis. Marion has recently been acknowledged for her scientific research, particularly into four species of land frogs from Western Australia who have recently been identified as a new Genus and are now officially named after her.
After decades of studying the life cycle of frogs and releasing her book “Tadpoles & Frogs of Australia“, researchers have classified these frogs into the distinct biological group Anstisia.
