Five years after the 10th Forum Herbulot Congress, which was followed by a long hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we were finally able to come together again.
Five years after the 10th Forum Herbulot Congress, which was followed by a long hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we were finally able to come together again. In 2023, we organized a dedicated symposium as part of the 23rd European Congress of Lepidopterology held in Orléans, France. This event was officially regarded as the 11th International Congress of Forum Herbulot, allowing the community to reconnect, exchange the latest scientific results, and foster collaborations after the difficult years of the pandemic.
