Latrobe Valley Field Naturalists Club information


The Latrobe Valley Field Naturalists Club (Latrobe Valley FNC) is an Australian regional scientific natural history and conservation society. It is based in the Latrobe Valley in Victoria and draws members from across western, central and southern Gippsland.

The Latrobe Valley FNC was created in 1960 to encourage the enjoyment of nature and to help preserve the region's flora, fauna and natural habitat. Its motto is "to protect and enjoy".[1]

The club supports a wide range of conservation and environmental projects throughout the region, including monitoring threatened species and conducting plant and animal surveys in areas of high conservation value.[2]

The current emblem of the Latrobe Valley FNC was designed by artist Beatrice Rowles and features the flying duck-orchid (Caleana major). The Australian grass tree (Xanthorrhoea australis) has also been used in the club's branding, including a 1965 car sticker that was sold at field naturalist camps across Australia.[1]
