* Redmap wins Whitley Award!

Posted on Sunday, 26 September 2010

Redmap has been awarded a 2010 Whitley Certificate of Commendation (category of Interactive Resource) which was presented at an awards ceremony in Sydney on Friday evening. The Whitley Awards are hosted annually by the Royal Zoological Society of New South Wales. These awards are a tribute to Gilbert Whitley, an eminent Australian ichthyologist. First presented in 1979, the awards are for outstanding publications (in printed or electronic form) that contain a significant amount of information relating to the fauna of the Australasian region. These publications may be highly technical works or they may be for wider and more general readership.
 
A BIG thank you to all Redmap supporters and contributors for making Redmap a success!
