Start Date: 01/01/1957      End Date: 01/01/2014
Survey Type: Vegetation and Fauna
   
Study Area Description: Throughout whole of South Australia
Objectives
         Vegetation: Refer to Abstract.
         Fauna: Refer to Abstract.
Methodology
         Vegetation: see Fauna
         Fauna: The slides were donated unsorted and without an associated data set. Most have brief data written by Darrell on the mount (subject/general location/approx. date) though often some or all of these elements are missing; many slides were labelled from memory well after they were taken (sometimes years/decades); sometimes duplicates or alternative views of the same subject bear conflicting data. A few of the plant images have been related by P.J. Lang to BDBSA voucher numbers, particularly in cases when he was present with Darrell in the field. Start and finish dates given are a guess of the possible date range.
