This page is dedicated to European Carabidologists Meetings (ECM), which have long tradition since late 1960′s (see the history page). ECM provide a platform where scientists as well as students working on or with carabid beetles in the widest sense (Coleoptera: Carabidae) meet, exchange ideas and experience. All aspects of carabid ecology, biology, morphology, taxonomy, systematics, diversity or evolution are discussed, and studies that use carabid beetles as a model taxon in agroecological research are also present. This page is intended to concentrate available information on the past as well as the future meetings yet to be organized.
