The virtual Herpetologists’ League annual Business Meeting will be held on Friday 30 July 2021 from 2-4pm Eastern. Come learn about the inner workings of the society and about ways you can get involved in shaping not only the society but also the field of herpetology. We will be announcing this year’s HL award winners and updates on the activities of the Board of Trustees and HL committees.
There will be special prize giveaways for attendees! Prizes include turtley-trinkets and full-color plates from Duellman’s Hylid Frogs of Middle America. Have to be present to win.
