by both professional and amateur entomologists, to publish 
periodicals and other occasional papers on entomology and related 
fields; to promote conservation in the field of Entomology, and 
to do that which shall promote the general purpose of this 
Society." 
To this end, the next meeting of our Society has been 
set aside for an open forum on the WES: what it has going for it, 
ad what its present and future needs are. Please try to join us, 
and bring along an idea or two! We'll also use the time to share 
any interesting or unusual insect finds from the past summer's 
collecting. I'd be happy to take a stab at any beetles you may be 
stumped on, and I'm sure other members could offer assistance on 
lepidoptera, Hymenoptera and perhaps other groups as well. We 
will have access to microscopes, so don't hesitate to bring along 
"small stuff!" 
More From the Pres ! 
As most of you should know if you've been reading your 
Newsletters, the WES has sort-of adopted (or been adopted by) the 
UW Milwaukee Field Station at Cedarburg Bog. For two summers now, 
we've had field collecting trips at the Cedarburg site, and 
several of us have toyed with the idea of making it a regular 
trip. This would be done in an effort to better identify the 
local insect fauna and, eventually, to create a useful teaching- 
research reference collection to be housed at the UWM Field 
Station. Jim Reinartz, the station's manager, has received us and 
our "pet project" most enthusiastically, and has been an 
excellent host to several of us over the course of the summer. 
Recently, Jim sent me a letter regarding the Field 
Station Bulletin, a portion of which reads as follows: 
"I am currently arranging the fall 1984 issue of the 
Bulletin and was wondering whether you or anyone in your group 
that you know of might have some notes to include on the Field 
Station insects. We are especially interested in articles 
concerning the local area. Please let me know whether you would 
consider writing an article or send me the names and addresses of 
anyone you think might like to contribute to the Bulletin." 
This could be an excellent vehicle for publication of 
notes or short studies on the entomofauna of Wisconsin. I 
definately plan to consider the Field Station Bulletin for a few 
projects I have underway; I hope you will too!
