Front Page!

Hi there,

I have just seen my first ever front page which is of the Paddle-flap scorpionfish (Rhinopias eschmeyeri) taken in Lembeh Straits last year.  It is on the cover of FiNS magazine issue 7.2 which also features my article on the top 10 critters on Lembeh along with my column 'Really Richard?' comparing the Mandarin fish and the easily confused Picturesque Dragonet.

Go and get a copy for yourself from the FiNS website or subscribe to the podcast download on iTunes:

Enjoy!

Publication in Coral Reefs

Hi Everyone,

Just a quick note to say I have had a publication accepted by Coral Reefs which is a well respected scientific journal.  It focuses on the gestation, birth and mating of Denise's pygmy seahorse (Hippocampus denise).  This species is the subject of my PhD here in Brisbane, Australia.  I will post here once I have been provided with a pdf of the paper.

Best wishes

Rich
