RST Apology to Tasmanian Aboriginal people 2021.
Two new species collected recently from the World Heritage Area of Tasmania, are described in the microcaddisfly genus Oxyethira (Hydroptilidae: Trichoptera: Insecta). In addition, new records are given for Tricholeiochiton pennyae, biogeo graphically one of the more enigmatic Tasmanian hydroptilid species, and for Oxyethira tasmaniensis, both also known only from the Tasmanian World Heritage Area.

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.
