March 2001, Quito, Ecuador)
Claudia Medina. This year I have participated in the V Latin-American Scarabaeodeology
Meeting being held on March 5-9 in Quito, Ecuador. The meeting was very
nicely organized and it was enriched by the kindness and happiness of
our host,
Giovanny Onore and his team, whom made of this event something very
special. |
