The Maine Entomological Society was established by a group of insect and arachnid enthusiasts in 1997 (click here to see the newsletter that started it all!), and now has a total membership of approximately 120 individuals and groups. The Maine Entomologist, our quarterly newsletter, usually consists of 6-8 pages of Society news and entomological information. The annual meeting is held each fall, and we usually have a mid-winter workshop. Get-togethers and collecting trips are scheduled monthly when possible during the late spring, summer, and early fall, and in the winter we are rolling out a new webinar series, which will be archived here. All these are announced in advance both here and in the newsletter.
The Josselyn Botanical Society is a non-profit organization. Its foremost purpose is to advance the knowledge of Maine plants, principally through study of the local flora. Society records are published in society bulletins and stored at the University of Maine archives.

Finding and identifying a singing insect can be a wonderful challenge. These pages will expose you to over 90 common and widespread species and will help you identify many of the singers that you will hear in your immediate surroundings and in the countryside far from home. With the help of a flashlight and considerable patience, you will be able to track down individual singers and perhaps even view a singing performance firsthand!
