West Virginia Entomological Society

West Virginia Entomological SocietyThe West Virginia Entomological Society is a professional non-profit, scientifically oriented organization consisting of a governing board with elected officers. Originally formed in 1980, the purpose of WVES is to promote the science of entomology in West Virginia and to bring together individuals for the exchange of entomological information and knowledge. Membership consists of 40 currently active members with student, regular, and lifetime memberships. Anyone engaged in entomology, allied fields, or with an interest in entomology may become members and do not need to be affiliated with West Virginia University. Meetings are held bi-annually in different locations around the state as voted upon by membership.
