AHS - October meeting October 28th
Dr Jodi Rowley- Herpetologist and amphibian biologist from the Australian museum Sydney will be speaking on "Reptiles and amphibians of Indochina".

Biography-

I'm from Sydney originally, I did my undergraduate at UNSW, then moved to Townsville to do my PhD radiotracking frogs in the Wet tropics. After my PhD I moved to Cambodia to work for Conservation International, based in Phnom Penh, where I conducted amphibian surveys and training courses for local biologists in Cambodia, Vietnam and southern China. I'm now based at the Australian Museum. My research focuses on the diversity, ecology and conservation status of Indochinese amphibians, and I'm still able to conduct field trips in the region.
You can check out some pics and more info on www.jodirowley.com

It's a small investment to help support the reptile community in Sydney.
And members gain free entry into the Australian Reptile Park out at Somersby
Australian Reptile Park Official Site


The meeting is held at the Australian Museum, opposite Hyde Park in Sydney.
You can get off Museum station, and simply cross the park. But it's also easy enough to walk from Townhall station, whatever's easiest.
