ABOUT THE ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF VICTORIA INC.


The Entomological Society of Victoria is a non-profit Scientific Society which welcomes professional, amateur and student entomologists as members. The Society's Interests lie primarily in Entomology - the study of Insects, however many members are also interested in other groups e.g. spiders and the Society sees itself as having a role in promoting general interest in Invertebrates. The Society produces a bi-monthly news bulletin, the Victorian Entomologist.

A summary of the Society's aims are:

(a) to stimulate the scientific study and discussion of all aspects of entomology.
(b) to gather, disseminate and record knowledge of all identifiable Australian insect species,
(c) to compile a comprehensive list of all Victorian insect species,
(d) to bring together in a congenial but scientific atmosphere all persons interested in entomology.


CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE SOCIETY's NEWS BULLETIN VICTORIAN ENTOMOLOGIST

The Society welcomes contributions of articles, papers or notes pertaining to any aspect of entomology for publication in this Bulletin. Contributions are not restricted to members but are invited from all who have an interest. Material submitted should be responsible and original.

Contributions may be typed on A4 paper or preferably e-mailed to the Hon. editor at daniel dot dobrosak at sp-ausnet dot com dot au.
