About Us

The American Entomological Society is the oldest continuously-operating entomological society in the Western Hemisphere, founded on March 1, 1859. We support entomological research, education and outreach through multiple publications, and public meetings. We also encourage anyone interested in entomology to become a member.

The American Entomological Society currently publishes two journals, Transactions of the American Entomological Society and Entomological News.
