LINNEAN SOCIETY OF LONDON

 
The Linnean Society of London remains a leading forum for contemporary discussions on genetics, natural history, systematics, biology and the history of plant and animal taxonomy. Founded in 1788, the Society takes its name from the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus (1707-1778), whose botanical and zoological collections and library have been in our keeping since 1829, having been purchased from the executor of the Society's first President, Sir James Edward Smith (1759-1828).They draw members from professionals and amateurs working in fields as diverse as professional biology, genetics and taxonomy, to the history and philosophy of science and warmly welcome all new members.  
AIMS
  • To maintain the important historical collections in the biological sciences
  • To play a central role as the urgency and magnitude of the task of documenting the world's flora and fauna is recognised
