Societas Europaea Lepidopterologica - SEL
Societas Europaea Lepidopterologica (also known as SEL) is the European society for the study of moths and butterflies and for the conservation of these insects and their natural habitats.
The society was founded in 1976 with the aims of promoting collaboration among the lepidopterists of Europe, Western Asia and North Africa, and of promoting conservation of Lepidoptera and their habitats. The society now has in excess of 600 members.
The membership of the Societas Europaea Lepidopterologica comprises a large proportion of the active European professional researchers in the fields of Lepidoptera systematics, morphology, behaviour, faunistics, biogeography, biodiversity, ecology and conservation biology. It similarly comprises a large proportion of the European ‘amateur specialists’, whose contributions to the knowledge about this group of insects continues to be of paramount significance. For many SEL members Lepidoptera collecting is a major interest, and the society has a clear stand on this issue.
The Societas Europaea Lepidopterologica promotes research in lepidopterology and dissemination of the findings therefrom primarily through the arrangement of the biennial European Congresses of Lepidopterology and through the publication of the quarterly scientific journal Nota lepidopterologica. A newsletter, News — Nouvelles — Nachrichten, serves the communication within the society.
