[HELICONIUS] Organization of the FIRST International Heliconius Congress, by Bob Srygley, in 2000

[James Mallet]

*A piece of Heliconius Biology History:*

Robert Srygley had organized this, the First International Heliconius 
Congress, as a symposium under the auspices of the Association of 
Tropical Biology. The ATB meetings in 2000 were held together with the 
SSB/SSE/ASN Meetings at Bloomington, Indiana.  It was here that we first 
formed the embryonic "Heliconius Consortium." The Heliconius group was 
growing, and we were trying to map the genome for the first time (using 
allozymes and microsats)...

Best wishes, Jim Mallet
