Purpose:
To encourage interest in insect ecology, biology, taxonomy and behavior.
The club promotes activities in which members can discuss and/or actively
participate in this interest.
History:
The Aldrich Entomology Club was formed in 1961. It is named in honor
of John M. Aldrich. He was the first entomologist at the University of
Idaho as well as a historical authority on North American Diptera (J.M.
Aldrich Biography). It provides a forum for students, faculty,
and other interested persons to share their enthusiasm for insect biology
in all its apsects and to enjoy each other collegially and socially. Activities
have included public services, collecting trips, outings, seminars, and
publishing a newsletter that includes information about the Division of
Entomology at the University of Idaho.
