Society News

Atalopedes campestris, male
 






This portion of the website is dedicated to presenting news that will be of interest to Society members and perhaps to others also. Of course, the print publication, News of the Lepidopterists' Society, published quarterly, will have much more. If you know of Society news that would be appropriate here, contact the webmaster.
