Dates:
The dates will be 31 July to 1 August 2024, a Wednesday and Thursday. This will give people plenty of time (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) to see the beautiful sights around Chiang Mai and/or travel to Kuching, Sarawak, East Malaysia for the start of the World Congress of Herpetology 10 (WCH, see website https://www.worldcongressofherpetology.org) beginning on 5 August (Monday). If there appears to be more presenters than we anticipate for Gekkota Mundi III, we can extend the meetings by one more day.
Dates:
Having these meetings back-to-back in Southeast Asia makes it economically feasible for many folks who want to attend both Gekkota Mundi III and the WCH 10 to only have to make one flight to the region. It also makes it possible for many Asian students studying geckos to attend. We are negotiating with the National Science Museum of Thailand to publish the talks in a symposium volume.
