The Australian Tropical Herbarium and the Wet Tropics Management Authority are pleased to present our annual Rainforest Plant Identification Short Course.

Targeted at the interested layperson, the three day introductory short course will cover:

  • What is a rainforest?
  • How plants are named.
  • Plant structure and terminology.
  • A walking tour of nearby rainforest, and hands-on learning through identification of local native plants.
  • A review of important rainforest plant families, and the features used to identify them in the field.

Participants in each short course will receive a statement of attendance.

The course runs 8.30 am to 4 pm each day. Morning tea and lunch are included.
