The Society for the History of Natural History is a friendly international society for everyone who is interested in natural history in the broadest sense. This includes botany, zoology and geology as well as natural history collections, exploration, art and bibliography. Everyone with an interest in these subjects – professional or amateur – is welcome to join. For a brief history of the society, click here.
SHNH is known for its friendliness and provides a focal point for the history of all aspects of natural history. It has a thriving international membership and regional representatives organise local meetings. An international meeting is held at regular intervals.
The Society’s main publication is Archives of Natural History, published twice a year and distributed free to members. All volumes published from 1936 are available online. An informal Newsletter is also regularly published with details of forthcoming meetings, news and events, member’s news and new publications.
