Hello butterfly biologists,
The date for the next International Conference on the Biology of
Butterflies will be 29 June to 2 July, 2010.
Please bookmark the conference website:

Thank you to all of you who took the time to complete our earlier
survey of your preferred time for the conference. Interestingly, the
survey did not produce a single clear preferred date. Furthermore,
late during our survey period we discovered that the Society for
Conservation Biology was in the process of deciding to hold its
annual meeting in Edmonton. Over 1200 people are expected to attend
that meeting, and many butterfly biologists are likely to be among
them. So we thought that it would be best to give our conference
attendees the option to attend both meetings, by scheduling the
International Conference for Butterfly Biology during June 29 - July
2, which is back-to-back with the Conservation Biology meetings which
will be held during July 3 - 7. This should provide some travel
efficiencies for a number of butterfly biologists with interests in
conservation biology, without increasing registration or
accommodations costs for the remaining attendees. We hope that this
will make the International Conference for Butterfly Biology even
more attractive!
We hope that you are all in the midst of a great butterfly season.
Felix Sperling and Jens Roland - co-organizers
