Formerly the Ohio Working Group of the Declining Amphibian Populations Taskforce (DAPTF), this 4th meeting will take place on March 15, 2008 at the The Ohio Historical Society, 1982 Velma Avenue (intersection of I-71 and E. 17th Avenue). Directions are given below.

Invited speakers from the Midwest will present findings of recent research and conservation projects involving Ohio's frogs, toads, and salamanders. In addition, we are pleased to announce our keynote speaker, Dr. Jim Bogart, Professor Emeritus at the University of Guelph, Ontario, Canada, presenting "Unisexual Ambystomid Salamanders in Ohio." If you are interested in learning more about Ohio's amphibians and networking with other herpetologists and naturalists, then be sure to reserve this date and register for this meeting. A limited number of spaces are available for those wishing to present posters relevant to the conference topic.

The Conference will start with setup and registration at 8:30 AM. Paper presentations will commence at 9:00 AM. The auditorium and a display area will be available for oral and poster presentations, respectively. A box lunch will be provided as part of the regular registration fee of $20 ($10 for students). Registrations received after February 22, 2008 and on-site registration fees are the same, but with no lunch. The Conference concludes at 5 PM.

Please let others know about this conference. We hope to see you there!
