Acknowledgements iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This study is one part of a series of activities by NSW DPI in conjunction with the Sydney Metropolitan Catchment Management Authority (SMCMA) and NSW Maritime. In the first phase, NSW Maritime invited DPI to update distribution maps of estuarine macrophytes of Parramatta River/Sydney Harbour (West et al. 2004), an exercise funded through the Sydney Harbour Catchment Management Board by the Federal government. A second phase, incorporating data from the first phase, was also funded through the SMCMA from Federal government monies. Phase two involved three projects in the estuarine portion of the Parramatta River: the distribution of saltmarsh around the estuarine foreshore (Kelleway et al. 2007, Williams et al. in press), the historical distribution and likely future distribution of seagrass around the estuary (West and Williams 2008), and the extent of terrestrial vegetation along the foreshore (Allen et al. 2008). This, the third phase, was again underwritten by the SMCMA from Federal government funding and deals with the freshwater vegetation of the catchment. Lesley Diver of the SMCMA provided oversight of the project. John Martyn of STEP Inc. arranged access to digital map data of the Lane Cove River and Middle Harbour Creek. Andrew Petroeschevsky, Australian National Aquatic Weeds Coordinator, advised on the status of aquatic weeds. Greg West assisted with the design of the project, and Tony Fowler, Andrew Boomer, Ben Kearney, Michael Rodgers and Brooke McCartin assisted in the field. Tracey McVea very patiently assisted with corrections arising during proof reading. Freshwater macrophytes of the Parramatta Catchment (Williams and Thiebaud)
