Linnaean Society of New York


The Linnean Society of New York (Linnean Society of New York) is a scholarly society among the many Linnean societies named after Swedish naturalist Carl von Linné (1707-1778).

It was founded in New York in 1878 by a group of naturalists. The zoologist Clinton Hart Merriam (1855-1942) was the first president.

The Linnaean Society of New York is mainly concerned with ornithology. It publishes a newsletter and organizes excursions and conferences. Its logo represents a peregrine falcon perched at the top of a tower. code edit code
