About the Author
Dr. Pat Hutchings DSc, FRZS, AM, is a distinguished taxonomist and marine ecologist specializing in the systematics and ecology of polychaetes, a major component of benthic habitats. Her research has spanned Australian wetlands and coral reefs, contributing significantly to biodiversity studies and ecological research. She is currently a Senior Fellow at the Australian Museum Research Institute, where she continues her research and student supervision after retiring in 2016. She has also been a Research Fellow at the University of Sydney since 1986 and an Adjunct Fellow at Macquarie University since 2017, with previous adjunct positions at the University of Queensland and James Cook University, supervising PhD students.
From 1970 to 2016, she served as a Senior Principal Research Scientist at the Australian Museum Research Institute in Sydney. Dr. Hutchings completed her BSc (Special Honours, First Class) at Queen Mary College, London University, in 1967, followed by a PhD in Zoology from the University of Newcastle upon Tyne in 1970 and a Doctor of Science (DSc) degree from the same institution in 1989. Her research has taken her across the Australian coastline and offshore regions, as well as the Indo-Pacific, where she has conducted biodiversity surveys and experimental studies on bioerosion processes, particularly in the Great Barrier Reef and French Polynesia.
She has held numerous research fellowships and visiting positions, including a Visiting Fellowship at the Smithsonian Institution (1989), a Visiting Fellowship at Academia Sinica in Taiwan (1991), a French Government Research Fellowship in Paris and Marseille (1993), Visiting Professorships at the University Aix-Marseille (1995-2001), and a Visiting Professorship at Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (2019-2022). In addition to her research, Dr. Hutchings has played key roles in various scientific committees and advisory boards, including the Australian Bureau of Flora and Fauna (1987-1992), the Scientific Working Committee on Ballast Water Introductions (1989-1994), the NSW Scientific Committee under the Threatened Species Act (1997-2004), and the Resource Assessment Committee of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (2000-2009). She chaired the 11th International Polychaete Conference in 2013, contributed to the National Marine Science Plan launched in 2015, and has been a member of the Jervis Bay Marine Park Advisory Committee (2017-2024). Since 2018, she has served as a member of the United Nations’ Pool of Experts, focusing on Indo-Pacific benthic biodiversity.
Dr. Hutchings has also made significant contributions to scientific publishing. She is currently the Polychaete Editor for Zootaxa and an Associate Editor for Pacific Conservation. Previously, she served as Chief Editor of Marine Pollution Bulletin from 2015 to 2023, after having been its Regional Editor from 1995 to 2015. Her contributions to marine science and environmental conservation have earned her numerous accolades, including the Order of Australia (2024), Fellowship of the Royal Society of New South Wales (2021), Honorary Life Membership in the Australian Marine Sciences Association (2010), the Silver Jubilee Medal from the Australian Marine Sciences Association (2010), Honorary Life Membership in the Australian Coral Reef Society (2009), and Fellowship of the Royal Zoological Society (2005).
Throughout her career, Dr. Hutchings has published over 400 peer-reviewed papers in leading international journals, which are available on ResearchGate or upon request.

Right of withdrawal
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
