CALL FOR PAPERS
IX International Otter Colloquium
Otters: Ambassadors for Aquatic Conservation
4th - 6th June 2004, USA
We recently have been receiving numerous requests for extensions in
submitting abstracts for the IX International Otter Colloquium. Please
be aware that the December 15, 2003 date was intended as a suggestion
for participants to submit abstracts early and not the final deadline.
The final deadline was February 2, 2004. However, our web page (http://otter.frostburg.edu)
soon will be reflecting March 1, 2004 as the deadline. This extension is
being made to accommodate requests from the international community. We
thank the numerous researchers that made early submissions of abstracts
for papers and posters. To help make our planning more efficient, we
encourage others to make early submissions and not wait until the final
deadline. Please monitor the web page for conference costs (to be posted
by mid-January) and on-line registration information (we will begin
accepting registrations at the end of January). We're looking forward to
seeing you in June.
Sincerely,
Tom Serfass, Lisa Serfass, and Sadie Steven

Dear Mammalogists,
It is a great pleasure to inform you that the Congress Committee for
MAMMAL 2005 (the 9th International Mammalogical Congress; formerly the
International Theriological Congress: ITC) has been launched. The
Congress Committee will periodically inform you about the preparation of
MAMMAL 2005 through e-mail and the web page (www.hokkaido-ies.go.jp/mammal2005/),
which is now under construction. Though we are now managing e-mail
addresses based on delegate lists of the 7th and 8th ITC, we would like
to renew the list of addresses for MAMMAL 2005 with your permission. Are
you interested in MAMMAL 2005? Please reply to us (MAMMAL2005@hokkaido-ies.go.jp)
to get the periodical information about MAMMAL 2005.
Koichi Kaji and Takashi Saitoh (Secretary General)
