Nearly 20 years after the first
meeting of the Society in Tunanda in
1986 and more than 10 years after the
Internationonal Arachnological Congress
in Brisbane, in 1993, there will be another
‘reunion’ of the Australasian
Arachnological Society. As part of the
Combined Australian Entomological
Society, Society of Australian
Systematic Biologists and Invertebrate
Biodiversity and Conservation
Conference (Australian National
University, Canberra) from 4-9 December
2005, we are organizing a symposium
‘Australasian Arachnology – Evolution,
Ecology and Conservation’ Currently,
there are two sessions earmarked for this
symposium, however, the final format will
be determined by the number of
participants. Please register your interest
with the conference organisers. A call of
abstracts will be sent out in June (for
details please check:

Just days
before this newsletter went to the printer,
the Australasian Arachnological
Society launched its own website:
www.australasian-arachnology.org
It was a great effort from all involved, but
two people in particular (who are not even
directly involved with our society) deserve
a special mention: Randolf Manderbach
(web programming) and Thomas García
Godines (graphic design) professionally
developed and programmed the lay-out of
our website, for free! Thanks to both of
them! You will find further
acknowledgements and some information
in regard to the ‘philosophy’ of our site in
an introductory article on page 4.
Similar to this newsletter, the
website will prosper only through
contributions and feedback from all of
you!
