Bohemicae (ASZB) with the subtitle “Contributions to Soil Zoology in Central Europe ”.
The Instructions to Authors are available at the workshop website of the Czech
Zoological Society: www.zoospol.cz/?sekce=act&jazyk=en. Contributors are asked to
submit their manuscripts via email directly to Mr. Karel Tajovský (cewsz@bc.cas.cz).

other internet connections will be available at the registration desk.
Schedule
The workshop will be hosted by the Institute of Soil Biology, Biology Centre, Czech Academy of

excursion is planned to selected historical sights and natural beauties in the South Bohemia. The
scientific programme includes lectures and poster presentations covering a spectrum of different
aspects of soil zoology currently worked upon in this region. Programme and schedule will be
specified according to the final number of lectures and poster presentations.
