Purpose: The DGaaE ("German Society for General and Applied Entomology") unites entomologists who are engaged in this research field by profession or privately. It is the purpose of the society to support entomological research and to gather and communicate the existing knowledge in entomology. In favour of these tasks the DGaaE promotes personal contact, exchange of information, and the national and international cooperation of professional and amateur entomologists. Activities: Every second year, the DGaaE organizes an international congress. Study groups are regularly meeting for several special subjects - partly in cooperation with other scientific societies. The DGaaE periodically gives awards for important contributions to entomology: the FabriciusMedal for basic research, the Karl Escherich- Medal for applied research, and the Meigen-Medal for systematic and faunistic research. The excellent work of a young scientist (e.g. a thesis) is granted by the Weiss/Wiehe-Foundation every second year. Journals: The Mitteilungen der Deutschen Gesellschaft für allgemeine und angewandte Entomologie contain publications of the lectures and the posters held at the congresses of the DGaaE. Three or four times a year, an issue of the DGaaE-Nachrichten is published to inform the members about the latest news. Furthermore, members may receive further entomological journals at a decreased rate (currently the journals Entomologia generalis and Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift). Membership: Currently the DGaaE comprises some 860 members worldwide. Annual membership dues are at a rate of 40,00 Euro (ca. 40 US $) and include the receipt of the two journals DGaaE Nachrichten and Mitteilungen der Deutschen Gesellschaft für allgemeine und angewandte Entomologie. We cordially invite you to join the DGaaE. ... [Information of the supplier]
The department was established in 1862 and is one of the largest entomology collections in North America.

The Department of Entomology maintains two databases of the arthropod collections. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
The Entomological Society of America (ESA) is the largest organization in the world serving the professional and scientific needs of entomologists and people in related disciplines. Founded in 1889, ESA today has more than 5,700 members. ESA offers journals that provide unsurpassed coverage of the broad science of entomology. The Society publishes four internationally acclaimed scientific journals, an annual comprehensive collection of short reports on preliminary and routine screening tests for the management of arthropod pests, a colorful, quarterly magazine, and a monthly member newsletter. The premier event of the Society is its Annual Meeting. Each year more than 2,000 entomologists and other scientists gather to exchange scientific information. Additionally, ESA offers employment opportunities that are advertised each month in the printed and online from a wide range of institutions and companies employing entomologists and individuals in related fields. ...

Polish Entomological Union (PEU; Polish: Polski Związek Entomologiczny) was founded in Lwów in 1923. From the very beginning of its existence the aim of the PEU was: a thorough research work, i.e. taxonomy, biology, applied entomology, etc., on insects, especially those living in Poland, and publishing own publications. In September 1965 the hitherto existing name (PEU) was changed to that of the Polish Entomological Society (PES; Polish: Polskie Towarzystwo Entomologiczne). The English version of the website provides a short summary about the history of the PES, the Governing Board and publications, published by PES. Table of contents of the Polish Journal of Entomology (Polish: Polskie Pismo Entomologiczne) from 1993 till 2010 are available. All papers from 2006 till 2010 and some keys for Identification (in Polish) are downloadable as PDF-files (September 2010). ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
The official website of the Japanese Society of Applied Entomology and Zoology provides information on the society and its activities. The Japanese Society of Applied Entomology and Zoology membership is composed of approximately 2,000 researchers that study insects, mites, spiders, nematodes, birds and other animals. These researchers are engaged in both basic and applied research activities for plant and animal protection, especially pest control, environmental preservation, utilization of insects and other related areas. The Japanese Society of Applied Entomology and Zoology was founded in 1957, as a result of a merger between the Japanese Society for Applied Zoology (Journal: Oyo-Doubutsugaku Zasshi), founded in 1929, and the Nippon Society of Applied Entomology (Journal: Oyo-Kontyu), founded in 1938. The Society publishes two quarterly journals: Japanese Journal of Applied Entomology and Zoology (text in Japanese, abstract in English) and Applied Entomology and Zoology (in English). Tables of Contents of both journals are available. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
