The organization of the First National Meeting for the Regulation and Control of Bee Pathology is progressing. The symposium arises facing some recent cases of American Locque declared in Argentina. My friends of the Argentine Beekeeper Society (S.A.D.A.) asked me to use BEE-L for collecting international information concerning control rules for all aspects of varroatosis and other acarine diseases, bacterial and protozoic diseases, virus diseas es and fungal infections. They are particularly interested in International Legislation for the statement of sanitary barriers for bees' diseases. Should you wish to provide related information, please send it via BEE-L to me or via air mail to: Dr. Alicia De la Riva Sociedad Argentina de Apicultores (S.A.D.A.) Rivadavia 717 - 8 piso CP 1392 Buenos Aires ARGENTINA Many thanks for all.
