At what point do you stop searching for new species in a defined area?

Yeah I’ve started drawing up plans based on which families I’m still missing. I’ve got 30-40 eucalypts I haven’t done yet that I have to wait for flowers/fruit before I can ID them.

I’ll definitely keep going indefinitely, but I’m intending to publish my survey; there’s a bit of an imperative to get the data out given urban development + pollution is continuing around the area.

(direct translation: “And then the systematics combined some of the species, some shattered”)
Definitely something I’ve had to account for, many of the species names he used are now synonymised, have moved into different genera, etc.

Awesome, cheers for this! Looks perfect for my question.
