8th International Conference on the Biology of Butterflies Dates: 11-14 June 2018
Place: Bangalore, India The 8th International Conference on the Biology of Butterflies conference will be held in Bangalore, India, from 11-14 June 2018. The International Conferences on the Biology of Butterflies are international gatherings, organized every four years, of primarily professional biologists who study evolutionary biology, behaviour, ecology, systematics, biogeography, genetics, developmental biology, and biodiversity conservation, with butterflies and moths as their focal study organisms. This is an excellent academic and professional forum for latest discoveries and to exchange news in these research areas. Tourism: Visiting Bangalore for the conference will also provide a fantastic opportunity to for cultural and natural history tours. We are organizing a 1 day pre-conference field trip to Makalidurga near Bangalore, and will facilitate longer post-conference trips to some exciting places in the Western Ghats. The BoB website has more information. We encourage you to visit along with family and friends Workshop: We will also have a 3 day post-conference workshop (19-21 June) intended primarily for students interested in butterfly biology. This will be held in Coorg, ca. 270 km from Bangalore. Website: www.biologyofbutterflies.org Organisers: Krushnamegh Kunte (krushnam...@ncbs.res.in) Ullasa Kodandaramaiah (ull...@iisertvm.ac.in)
