The DVD ASSOCIATES of Eciton burchellii completed by Julia Joseph and Marian Rettenmeyer following the death of Carl Rettenmeyer on April 9, 2009, is now available for purchase. Because we believe it is extremely important that the scientific specimens described in this DVD be carefully preserved and that future study of these specimens be supported, we are now offering to send a copy of the new DVD for your contribution of $25.00 or more to the Carl and Marian Rettenmeyer Ant Guest Endowment
