The journal was established in 1862 as Mitteilungen der Schweizerischen Entomologischen Gesellschaft (in German), Bulletin de la Société Entomologique Suisse (in French) and Journal of the Swiss Entomological Society (in English) by the Swiss Entomological Society.[1][2] It published articles in German, French[2] and later also in English. In the general assembly of the Swiss Entomological Society in March 2017 it was decided to rename the journal to Alpine Entomology and transfer the publishing to Pensoft Publishers.[1] This also made it officially open access.[3]
