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]
Japan is also known as Odonata-island. Therefore Odonata (Dragonflies and Damselflies) are the most popular insects in Japan. This web page introduce to there biology and the Japanese Odonata fauna. [Editorial staff vifabio]
The Site includes most verified information for every sphingid species and subspecies recorded from the Eastern Palaearctic and concentrates on the taxonomy, biology, ecology and biogeography of each taxon. For many species there is collated information from Chinese literature sources that are difficult to obtain in the West. The phylogenetic sequence of genera and taxonomy of species follows Kitching & Cadiou (2000) (with the exception of Callambulyx sichangensis, q.v.). Species/subspecies are treated alphabetically within genera. Under each species/subspecies there is the original description and type locality (interpreted as necessary), and all of the following data categories, where known. Data on original descriptions and type localities are given. The Site includes observations and discussion of taxonomic questions pertinent to the taxon. This section is not included for every species. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
An entomology database KONCHU is a general database name including various files treating species information on Japanese, East Asian and Pacific insects (including spiders and mites). Entomology reference database based on main Japanese entomological and zoological journals KONCHUR. KONCHU is supported by a Grant-in-Aid for Publication of Scientific Research Result and a Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (B) from the Ministry of Education, Science, Sports and Culture, Japan and Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. ...

Recently, in Asian countries, interests in ornithology are increasing for conservation and academic research. The 26th International Ornithological Congress in Japan in 2014 will bring wonderful opportunities for deligates to access beautiful nature of Japan and surrounding areas, and will aid rapid progress in ornithology not only in Japan but throughout Asia. International ornithological congresses have a long history of integrating all branches of science, from basic research in physiology, morphology, and molecular biology, to applied research in conservation, medicine, and agriculture, because birds are the experimental vertebrates of choice when trying to find answers to problems in these various areas. Birds have conquered all of the Earth’s biomes; their body sizes range from the tiniest hummingbird to the enormous moas, and they share diurnality, color vision, visual and vocal communication, and three-dimensional space with us humans. ...

Ecological societies of China, Japan, and Korea collaboratively established a federation to promote ecological science in East Asia. EAFES plans symposia, meetings, joint researches and other activities that could contribute to develop the ecological science and society in this region. [Information of the supplier]
2014 ICN / JSCPB is a joint meeting of the 11th International Congress of Neuroethology (ICN) and the 36th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society for Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry (JSCPB). The conference will be held at the Sapporo Convention Center, Sapporo, Japan, July 28th through August 1st, and is co-organized by the International Society for Neuroethology (ISN), the Japanese Association of Neuroethologists (JAN) and the Science Council of Japan (SCJ). The conference attracts scientists and students engaging in neuroethology – the study of neural mechanisms of animal behavior – working in a broad range of disciplines, including neurophysiology/neuroanatomy, molecular biology/genetics, cognitive psychology, computational neuroscience, and robotics. Neuronal mechanisms of any species – invertebrate or vertebrate, including humans – will be subjects of discussion. ... [Information of the supplier]
The Thirteenth International Conference on Endothelin will be held at Tokyo Campus of Tsukuba University in Tokyo, Japan, September 8-11, 2013. In the tradition of the meeting rotating between the continents the conference this time will be again held in Asia and will provide a forum for cutting-edge science in endothelin and endothelin receptor antagonism research and it will represent the 25th anniversary of the International Conferences on Endothelin since the first conference was held in in 1988 shortly after the discovery of endothelin at the University of Tsukuba. As an international biomedical research conference, ET conferences have been previously attended by several hundred scientists and clinicians from around the world. Continuing the meeting's tradition, novel findings on the role of endothelin and its receptors in molecular biology, development, pharmacology, general physiology, and pathophysiology will be presented. Most recent results from clinical trials of endothelin antagonism in patients will also be presented. ... [Information of the supplier]
It is the great honor and pleasure to host the 14th International Congress of Acarology in Kyoto, Japan, during the week of Gion Festival (14-18 July 2014). On behalf of the organizing committee, I warmly invite all acarologists and scholars working on topics related to Acarology in the world to participate in ICA at Kyoto a historical city filled with traditional Japanese culture. The science of Acarology is vital to all life on this planet. Come join us in exciting discussions on all aspects of mites and ticks and enjoy the atmosphere of East Asia. As president of the organizing committee, I am convinced this congress will beam a strong message of ‘Mighty Mite’ and ‘Tricky Tick’ to the world. ... [Information of the supplier]
