The tenth almost-annual meeting of the Mid-Atlantic Malacologists (MAM) will occur Saturday 15 March 2008 at the Delaware Museum of Natural History (DMNH) in Wilmington, Delaware. This one-day gathering is designed to facilitate contact among professional, amateur, and student malacologists who are interested in any aspect of molluscan biology. There are no dues, officers, abstracts, or publications. Meeting and parking are free of charge. Participants are encouraged to present and discuss data, compare notes on methods and problems, and catch up with colleagues and friends. Presentations (15 minutes max.) are very informal and cover topics as diverse as current research, trip reports, and collection issues.
The DMNH mollusk collection and library are available for use by participants. People interested in using the collection should make advance arrangements with Leslie Skibinski, Mollusk Collection Manager ([log in to unmask]) so specimens or books can be pulled.
Schedule and directions are listed below. For additional information or to say you will attend and/or give a talk, please contact Liz Shea at [log in to unmask]
We look forward to seeing you!
