The first-ever joint meeting of the Southern Lepidopterists’ Society and the Association for Tropical Lepidoptera was held September 27 and 28, 2003 in the Doyle Conner Auditorium of the FSCA, Division of Plant Industry, Gainesville, Florida. This meeting, the 25th Annual Meeting of the SLS, was a landmark in the society’s quarter century history, and was well attended, with several charter members present. Members who signed in were as follows: James K. Adams, Andy Anderson, Bob Belmont, Bob Beiriger, Ron and Grace Boender, Richard Boscoe, John Calhoun, Terry and Sandra Doyle, Tom Emmel, David Fine, Irving Finkelstein, Rick Gillmore, John Heppner, Deborah and Terry Lott, Lee and Jackie Miller, Marc Minno, Tom Neal, Akers Pence, Floyd and June Preston and Jeff Slotten. Many SLS members are also ATL members, and so the complete attendance roll contained 44 names by meeting’s end.

The Southern Lepidopterists’ Society will hold its annual meeting this year in conjunction with the opening of McGuire Center for Lepidoptera Research on September 25-28, 2003 in Gainesville, Florida at the Florida State Collection of Arthropods. The meetings will be held together with those of the Association for Tropical Lepidoptera. All sessions will be held in the Doyle Conner Auditorium at the Division of Plant Industry, Florida Dept. of Agriculture and Consumer Services, 1911 SW 34th St. in Gainesville. The McGuire Center will be open for walk-throughs, and the collections at FSCA will be available for inspection before the meetings.
