In past years there have been several unsuccessful attempts to
arrange a symposium on Trichoptera. Letters from fellow workers
suggested that now might be an appropriate time, and that a
symposium should be held in Lunz. Today it is clear that large
congresses are losing their value because of the difficulty of
attending all relevant lectures and of finding colleagues. In
consequence, small symposia for specialist groups are becoming
increasingly important. As I felt that the success of such a
symposium must depend on the suggestions from its potential
members, I sent out in April 1973, together with a first circular,
a questionnaire, asking for opinions on time and length of the
symposium, numbers of participants, types of communication,
interests within Trichopterology, and lan guages which should be
used. The majority of answers suggested the following: The number
of participants should be between 20 and 50, and the duration,
excluding excursions, should be three to five days; main interests
were in ecology and systematics, but there were also interests in
physiology, behaviour, zoogeography, morphology, cytotaxonomy and
evolution. There was a clear preference for local excursions.
Languages should be English, French and German, with a preference
for English. The symposium should consist of both formal papers and
informal progress reports, with adequate time for discussion. The
arrangements have therefore been based on these results."
