St. Louis, MO SSAR 2007 0916984729 / 9780916984724 Paperback New No
SSAR Herpetological Circular # 36The Society was founded as a regional organization, The Ohio Herpetological Society (OHS), by two young but serious-minded amateurs. Kraig Adler and David M. Dennis, then 16 and 17 years of age respectively. They decided in the fall of 1957 to formalize interactions amongst a small group of amateur herpetologists throughout Ohio and began publishing a combined journal and newsletter in January 1958. This was the official beginning of the OHS, and was followed by the first annual meeting at Toledo in June of that year. The OHS grew to 75 members and 10 institutions by the end of its first year. Membership had already taken on a national and international feel with members from 11 states and 4 countries.
