Are you involved in plant conservation work? Are you a member of a local revegetation group, or a landholder, or a scientist conducting research into threatened species? Or perhaps you're just interested in Australia's native plants. Whatever your interest, Australasian Plant Conservation is a must for anyone involved in plant conservation.

Australasian Plant Conservation is a forum for information exchange for all those involved in plant conservation. Each issue contains a range of articles on plant conservation issues which reflect the interests of the range of ANPC's membership. Regular features include lists of the latest relevant publications, websites, conferences, field work and workshops. Australasian Plant Conservation is published quarterly, in March, June, September and December. It is currently received by 700 individuals and organisations within Australia and worldwide.  There is an index to past issues below.

Submitting material

Please use Australasian Plant Conservation to share your work with others. Articles, information snippets, details of new publications and diary dates are all welcome. Please contact us with your  typed or handwritten articles, no more than two A4 pages (approximately 1200 words). More detailed guidelines are available here.

Subscribing to Australasian Plant Conservation

Australasian Plant Conservation is sent to ANPC members, who receive it four times a year. When you have become a member, you will receive the next issue of Australasian Plant Conservation.
