His responsibilities were to supervise fisheries investigations and fish hatcheries. He attempted (ultimately unsuccessful) experiments in fish acclimatisation and laid the foundation for the purchase of trawlers by the Government. In 1908 Dannevig became Director of Fisheries for the Australian Government. For the next six years he made extensive use of Australia's first purpose-built fisheries research vessel F.I.S. Endeavour, identifying potentially valuable fishing grounds off the New South Wales and Tasmanian coasts and in the Great Australian Bight. Other results of these researches included the collection of over 5,000 specimens and the identification of nearly 300 new species of which nearly 100 were previously unknown fish. Dannevig disappeared at sea when, on board Endeavour during a visit to Macquarie Island, the ship vanished while returning to Hobart. 1894 1894 Career event - Appointed Supervisor of marine fish hatcheries, Fishery Board of Scotland, Dunbar 1902 1902 Life event - Arrived in Australia 1902 1908 Career position - Director of Fisheries, New South Wales 1905 1905 Life event - Naturalised as an Australian citizen 1908 1914 Career position - Commonwealth Director of Fisheries Commonwealth of Australia (1901 - )
