The Lepidopterists' Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to the study of butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera). Founded in 1947 and based in the United States, it has an international focus and membership.

Publications

The society's main organ is the Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society, which has been published continuously since 1947.[citation needed] Back issues up and including 2009 are freely available and hosted by the Peabody Museum of Natural History at Yale University.[1] Subsequent issues are available via BioOne.[2]

Since 1959, the society has also published a quarterly newsletter, the News of the Lepidopterists' Society. All back issues of this, too, are available from the Peabody Museum.[3]

A series of occasional papers is called Memoirs:[3]

  • Memoir 1. A Synonymic List of the Nearctic Rhophalocera. C. F. dos Passos, 1964
  • Memoir 2. A Catalogue/Checklist of the Butterflies of America North of Mexico. L. D. Miller and F. M. Brown, 1981.
  • Memoir 3. Supplement to: A Catalogue/Checklist of the Butterflies of America North of Mexico. C. D. Ferris (ed.), 1989
  • Memoir 4. Foodplants of World Saturniidae. S. E. Stone, 1991
  • Memoir 5. Basic Techniques for Observing and Studying Moths and Butterflies. W. D. Winter, Jr., 2000

They are also available via the Peabody.[3]

Other publications include:

  • The Lepidopterists' Society Commemorative Volume 1945-1973. R. Kendall (compiler), 1977

Presidents

The society's first president, in 1951, was James Halliday McDunnough of the Nova Scotia Museum of Science.[4] The next year, he was succeeded by the German-British entomologist Karl Jordan, of the Zoological Museum, Tring, England.[4] The president for 2018-2019 is Brian Scholtens [Wikidata].[4]
