RST Apology to Tasmanian Aboriginal people 2021.
Five species of Isoetes are known in Tasmania. I elatior, I. humilior and I. gunnii are endemic, whilst I. drummondii and I. muelleri are also widespread in mainland Australia. Distinguishing morphological characteristics, distribution and ecology of the species are discussed. I muelleri is much more common and widespread than originally thought, and many new records have been made for I drummondii, I. elatior
and I humilior, enabling a better understanding of the ecology and conservation status of the genus in Tasmania.

The Royal Society of Tasmania acknowledges, with deep respect, the traditional owners of this land, and the ongoing custodianship of the Aboriginal people of Tasmania. The Society pays respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that Tasmanian Aboriginal Peoples have survived severe and unjust impacts resulting from invasion and dispossession of their Country. As an institution dedicated to the advancement of knowledge, the Royal Society of Tasmania recognises Aboriginal cultural knowledge and practices and seeks to respect and honour these traditions and the deep understanding they represent.
On 15 February 2021, the Royal Society of Tasmania offered a formal Apology to the Tasmanian Aboriginal people.
