  • MEDIA RELEASE 26 November 2015
    MEDIA RELEASE 26 November 2015 Peter Gash to attend The GBR Special Screening with Sir David Attenborough Managing Director of Lady Elliot Island Eco Resort, Peter Gash, was delighted to receive an invitation to the special screening of Sir David Attenborough’s landmark series ‘The Great Barrier Reef’ being held in London next week. “It was a very unexpected pleasure and a great honour to receive an invitation to attend the special screening of the Great Barrier Reef documentary in London so how could I say no? Sir David Attenborough is a world renowned naturalist and documentary maker and I would love the opportunity to meet with Sir David and have a chat to him about the Great Barrier Reef. I know that he fell in love with Australia’s iconic Great Barrier Reef when he first visited many years ago, just like I did, so I’m glad that he was able to come back to do a documentary showcasing this incredible eco-system.” “As the current leaseholder and custodian of Lady Elliot Island, I am very excited to be going to London as an ambassador of the Southern Great Barrier Reef. As a pilot, I have also had the privilege of visiting many parts of the Great Barrier Reef over the past 25 years and I must say that it never ceases to amaze me. I can’t wait for the rest of the world to be able to see the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef through Sir David Attenborough’s eyes,” said Mr Gash. Lady Elliot is a true coral cay located on the southern tip of Australia’s World Heritage Listed Great Barrier Reef, 80kms north-east of Bundaberg, just north of Fraser Island.

  • Karl Jordan: a Life in Systematics
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Kristin Renee Johnson for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History of SciencePresented on July 21, 2003. Title: Karl Jordan: A Life in Systematics Abstract approved: Paul Lawrence Farber Karl Jordan (1861-1959) was an extraordinarily productive entomologist who influenced the development of systematics, entomology, and naturalists' theoretical framework as well as their practice. He has been a figure in existing accounts of the naturalist tradition between 1890 and 1940 that have defended the relative contribution of naturalists to the modem evolutionary synthesis. These accounts, while useful, have primarily examined the natural history of the period in view of how it led to developments in the 193 Os and 40s, removing pre-Synthesis naturalists like Jordan from their research programs, institutional contexts, and disciplinary homes, for the sake of synthesis narratives. This dissertation redresses this picture by examining a naturalist, who, although often cited as important in the synthesis, is more accurately viewed as a man working on the problems of an earlier period. This study examines the specific problems that concerned Jordan, as well as the dynamic institutional, international, theoretical and methodological context of entomology and natural history during his lifetime. It focuses upon how the context in which natural history has been done changed greatly during Jordan's life time, and discusses the role of these changes in both placing naturalists on the defensive among an array of new disciplines and attitudes in science, and providing them with new tools and justifications for doing natural history. One of the primary intents of this study is to demonstrate the many different motives and conditions through which naturalists came to and worked in natural history.
