Biology Waena - Jayapura, Papua, Indonesia Email: [email protected] Suara Serangga Papua: 8(5): 147-151 On Saturday, 27th May 2006, a group of young entomologists* established Kelompok Entomologi Papua (KEP – Entomological workgroup Papua). On the 8th anniversary, on Tuesday 27 May 2014, all local entomologists and those who support the group were invited for a three hours meeting at APO, the home of Henk van Mastrigt, and the Koleksi Serangga Papua (KSP – Collection of Papuan Insects) and library. At this meeting twenty-three young people were present (see fig. 1 with names beneath). In order to ensure the future of the group and to cooperate with Perhimpunan Entomologi Indonesia (PEI – Entomological Society Indonesia), it was unanimously decided that all become member of PEI Branch Jayapura, replacing KEP For the time to come APO will remain the home of the collection, library and activities, but in the future it will move to Universitas Cenderewasih, FMIPA, at Waena. This decision is supported and agreed by Dirk Y.P. Runtuboi, Chairman Dept Biology FMIPA UNCEN. * Daawia, Hanna Kawulur, Evie L. Warikar, Euniche R.P.F. Ramanday, Edy M. Rosariyanto, Yoh.
