The 18th Annual Meeting of the Missouri Herpetological Association was held on 24-25 September 2005 at Reis Biological Station near Steelville, Crawford County, Missouri.
A total of 28 "members", representing twelve institutions, attended. An brief introduction to the biological station was followed by nine paper sessions. A short business meeting followed the last presentation. Discussion topics included the location of the 2006 meeting as well as some tentative plans for a spring field trip weekend. Abstracts from presentations will be published in the 2005 newsletter, available sometime this winter.
Presentation, group, and dinner photos as well as a group photo from the meeting are available.
The original coordinator's letter, meeting announcement, registration and call for papers, and map to the station will remain available on-line for historical purposes. Details about the 2006 annual meeting, tentatively planned at Reis Biological Station in Crawford County, Missouri will be available soon. Stay tuned!
