Event Description
The Academy's Entomology Collection contains 4 million specimens and has played an important role in our science since 1812.

The scientists who collect and study them will share their favorite stories and answer your questions.
Entomology – the branch of zoology that deals with insects. Derived from the Greek word entomon, meaning “insect.”
