If not for working in the forestry,I wouldn't have the slightest clue who is this English naturalist. It is nice that he is recognised in Singapore and to have an eductional centre named after him. He was the first to noticed and describe the great divide (the Wallace Line)between the two great faunal regions and the boundary, defined by a deepwatergap between them. West of the line, group such as the hornbills, primates (monkeys and orang utan) prenominated. On the eastern side, marsupials, cockatoos, bird of paradise. The line cuts the Bali Island and Lombok Island into two different groups even they are only a stone throw away.
