Dear friends and colleagues,<br>
</div><div class="gmail_quote">There is only one week left to submit a contributed talk or poster for the International Lepidopterists' Conference in July in Denver (deadline 15 June). You can register later than this date, but we will be unable to include your abstract in the program and abstract book. Many of the (free) fieldtrips are already pretty full, but if you hurry, you might still get a place.<br>
<br>
To remind you:<br>
The combined 2012 Annual Meeting of the Lepidopterists' Society and the Societas Europaea Lepidopterologica will be hosted by the Denver Museum of Nature & Science from 23 to 29 July 2012. No membership is necessary.<br>
<br>
Grab the opportunity: Rocky Mountains and prairie in July's good weather; good food; cheap, but good accommodation; access to the research collection in-house, with Boulder and Fort Collins nearby; and an interesting program with lots of free field trips.<br>
<br>
For registration and additional information visit <a href="http://www.dmns.org/krell-lab" target="_blank">http://www.dmns.org/krell-lab</a><br>
<br>
The following symposia are planned:</div><div class="gmail_quote">
Monitoring and Inventorying Lepidoptera (organizer Rich Bray)<br>
Topics in Lepidoptera Conservation (organizer Astrid Caldas)<br>
Plant-insect Interactions in the Lepidoptera (organizer Deane Bowers)<br>
New developments in zoological nomenclature (discussion session, presented and led by Frank Krell, ICZN)<br>
<br>
Contributions do not need to fit into one of the symposia! We will accept talks on most any Lepidoptera-related topic.<br>
<br>
