The XXVIII Nordic-Baltic Congress of Entomology will be held in Lithuania on the 2nd – 7th of August, 2010. The Congress will be held in Birštonas by the the banks of the Nemunas river inside the Nemuno Kilpos Regional Park (Central Lithuania). The Nemunas River, one of the largest rivers of the Baltic region, is characterised by a generally straight valley and Great Nemunas Loops near the Birstonas Resort. The Park provides excellent possibilities for collecting and observing arthropods in different types of habitats. The Congress is organised by the Lithuanian Entomological Society.

All Nordic and Baltic scientists and students, also our colleagues from other countries doing research in entomology are heartly welcomed to the Congress. Besides insects, the congress covers also other terrestrial arthropods: mites, arachnids, etc. Plenary session, sections, poster presentation and excursions will be organised.
