We are delighted to host the editors of Natural History of Spencer Gulf, a new Royal Society of South Australian Inc publication, at our July meeting. The book boasts 444 pages, 71 pages of colour, and 30 chapters with information on: the Gulf’s history; physical characteristics; whales, dolphins and seals; seabirds; reef fishes; giant Australian cuttlefish; recreational and commercial fishing; marine pollution; management and protection; climate change; and fish population studies.

‘Spencer Gulf is a unique ecosystem, an inverse estuary on a temperate coast of an arid, ancient and weathered continent. The Gulf is both highly productive and uniquely fragile where a complex interplay of ecological and biophysical processes has resulted in an environment with an incredible diversity of flora and fauna. In short, Spencer Gulf is an environment that is as beautiful as it is rare, and one which deserves a special place in our hearts and minds; a justification in and of itself for a book such as this Natural History of Spencer Gulf.’ (Professor Anthony Cheshire, June 2014)

Please join us and Scoresby Shepherd, Stephen Madigan, Bronwyn Gillanders, Sue Murray-Jones and David Wiltshire (editors) as they give us a brief presentation, show off their wonderful publication and provide a lovely atmosphere for networking and catching up with your colleagues in the industry.
