Online publication of Florida Entomologist is a joint project of the Florida Entomological Society and the Florida Center for Library Automation (FCLA). It is a refereed natural science journal in basic and applied entomology and is currently online from 1994 to the present, although work is progressing to put the entire backfile online. The Florida Entomological Society was founded by a small group of naturalists at the University of Florida in 1916 to promote and stimulate interest in the field of entomology among Floridians.
