Promotional graphic from Annals of Botany. White text on a brown banner reads "New perspectives on tropical grassy biomes and the trophic consequences of the evolution of grass – William Bond." Beneath it is a photo of a mud-coated rhinoceros with small birds on its back, feeding in dry golden grassland dotted with green shrubs and backed by flat-topped acacia trees. In the lower right, William Bond, an older man with grey-brown hair wearing a navy sweater over a light blue collared shirt, smiles at the camera.
