Richard y Catherine fueron enterrados en el Cementerio General Booroondara, Melbourne, Australia Fue en Tasmania que Bastow se interesó en la briología. Su obra definitiva, Mosses of Tasmania, fue publicado en Hobart en 1886. Otras obras importantes le siguieron en los últimos años. Su último escrito fue Victorian Hepaticae en 1914, que fue pionero en el campo de ese estado australiano. En 1888 se trasladó a Victoria, llegando a bordo del 'Mangana' el 13 de marzo. En Victoria trabajó inicialmente en privado, pero más tarde se convirtió en un empleado del Departamento de Obras Públicas hasta su jubilación. Richard encontró en el autoempleo una tarea que no era adecuada para el, ya que siendo empleado le permitía seguir su verdadera pasión de las "algas y musgos". Él fue en gran parte responsable de la original Lonja del Pescado de Melbourne. En Victoria, continuó con su trabajo de campo y entusiasta presentación de ponencias en el Campo de Naturalistas del Club y la Real Sociedad de Victoria. Él fue miembro de la Sociedad Linneana de Londres entre 1885 y 1889 Después de su muerte, su hijo Austin donó al Museo Nacional de Melbourne su colección de más de 10.000 moluscos. Su colección principal está en el Melbourne Herbario, otras colecciones en el Museo de Victoria. Las siguientes especies se nombran en honor de Bastow:

He was a Fellow of the Linnean Society of London between 1885 and 1889 After his death, his son Austin donated to the National Museum of Melbourne his collection of more than 10,000 molluscs.
