Submissions for Program, Section, and Member Symposia and Workshops are now being accepted.
New in 2025: All sessions previously considered Organized Meetings (i.e., SomosEnto, Korean Young Entomologist, Taiwanese Entomologist Association, etc.) will now be submitted to the program as either “Meetings & Events” or Member Symposia. Sessions submitted to Meetings & Events are welcome to have presentations during their session, but they will not be listed in the program.

Submissions for Meetings & Events will open in early April with a deadline of May 30.
