Bibliographic Checklist of Non-marine Algae in Australia
Descriptions and discussion of the many algae from fresh and brackish waters in Australia are widely
scattered, and therefore difficult to access. Many species have been recorded from Australia as outlying
records of overseas taxa.
Supplementary Series 7
Checklist of Australian Lichens and Allied FungiIn this
volume Dr Filson documents approximately 2800 lichenised, lichenicolous and allied fungi from 405 genera
which occur in the Australian States and mainland Territories as well as on Lord Howe Island, Norfolk
Island and Macquarie Island.

Vegetation of Tasmania
The vegetation of Tasmania, like that of any other region of the world, is imperfectly known, but this
book synthesises our existing knowledge. It covers all the major terrestrial vegetation types as well as
introducing the climate, geology, ecological processes and general environment of Tasmania, the plant
fossil record, endemism and conservation imperatives. Most of the chapters deal with the living
vegetation, but always underlying that theme is the historical significance of the processes that shaped
it.

Supplementary Series 9Lichens of Rainforest in Tasmania and South-eastern AustraliaThe cool temperate rainforests of the Southern Hemisphere are noteworthy for the remarkable diversity and luxuriance of their lichen floras, and Tasmania is endowed with a rich and complex array of lichen species. This book provides an insight into this realm of beautiful and unusual plants, frequently overlooked but so rich in colour and form.
Supplementary Series 13Allan Cunningham
Australian Collecting Localities
A detailed description of the collecting localities of botanist-explorer Allan Cunningham on the
hydrographic surveys of the Australian coast by Phillip Parker King in 1817–1822. It also includes
a summary of his other collecting activities until his death in 1839.
Supplementary Series 15
Tasmanian Lichens Identification, Distribution and Conservation Status
I. Parmeliaceae
This volume is the first in a series that collates the available floristic, distributional and ecological
data on the Tasmanian lichen flora. It deals with the family Parmeliaceae, the most diverse family of
Tasmanian lichens, which accounts for more than 15% of the total lichen flora and a very significant
proportion of the macrolichens.
Supplementary Series 16
The Mosses of Norfolk Island
An account of the 69 species of moss known from subtropical Norfolk Island, an Australian territory in
the south-western Pacific Ocean.
Supplementary Series 17
Catalogue of Australian Mosses
This book lists 1074 species and infraspecific taxa of Australian mosses and documents the nomenclatural
and distributional changes that have occurred since Streimann & Curnow's
Catalogue of Mosses of
Australia and its External Territories (1989).

The Marine Benthic Flora of Southern Australia, Rhodophyta — Part
IIID
Ceramiales – Delesseriaceae, Sarcomeniaceae, Rhodomelaceae
This book, jointly published by ABRS and the State Herbarium of South Australia, completes the account of the marine algae of this region. In format it is similar to earlier parts, with detailed species-level
descriptions of the last three families of red algae.
Supplementary Series 19
Catalogue of Australian Lichens
This catalogue lists 395 genera and 3135 species and infraspecific taxa of lichens known from Australia
and its external island territories. Thirty-four percent (1058 taxa) are endemic, with levels of endemism
and overall diversity markedly higher in the eastern and south-eastern States.
Supplementary Series 21
Catalogue of Australian Liverworts & Hornworts
This catalogue lists 150 genera and 869 accepted species and infraspecific taxa of liverworts and
hornworts from the eight States and mainland Territories of Australia.

Native Plants of Christmas Island
This attractive book provides colour illustrations and descriptions of 118 of the more common native
plants on Christmas Island, an Australian offshore island located in the Indian Ocean.
Supplementary Series 23
Key to the Genera of Australian Macrolichens
This key to the genera of Australian macrolichens follows recently published guides to apothecial crusts
and pyrenocarps. It covers all 135 genera of macrolichens known to occur in Australia, and illustrates
two-thirds of them in full colour.
Supplementary Series 24
Freshwater Cyanoprokaryota of North-Eastern Australia 1: Oscillatoriales
Cyanoprokaryotes (cyanobacteria or blue-green algae) are a major carbon source sustaining aquatic food webs, but are also linked with ecosystem degradation.
This first detailed Oscillatoriales account includes keys, morphological and ecological data for 122 species from 253 localities with copious photographs and illustrations. It will be of particular interest to scientists and water managers.
