RST Apology to Tasmanian Aboriginal people 2021.
The marine zonation of Hogan Island was studied as part of the McCoy Society expedition early in 1968. The composition of the supra-littoral zone is similar to that in Tasmania and Wilson’s Promontory while the composition of the littoral zone and the sublittoral fringe has greater resemblance to South Australian coasts. A list of the algae collected is appended.

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.
