[Original copies lodged in libraries of UQ, Brisbane, and Division of Soils, Adelaide. Some colour photographs/tables did not copy over and WP pagination has changed slightly during conversion. The thesis research and report were completed in three years and one of the referees commented that half the amount of work would have sufficed! It yet provides the most comprehensive guide to both native and exotic species in Australia, however, the taxonomy is now mostly superseded so please embargo unpublished species names & seek more recent information].
