INFOWEB: NEWSLETTERS

Killi-data newsletters provide regular general information about oviparous or viviparous Cyprinodontiformes or Killies.

There are also WASSUP, short bulletins proposing editorials and announcing new major publications, with abstract (copyrighted !), analysis and comments, since 2018.

To freely obtain Wassup automatically on date of issue, please fill in the REGISTRATION form to become a full member.

Please note that some newsletters, from INFOWEB 1 to 10 and previous announcement pages, are today suppressed because their contents are obsolete or have been included in HISTORY of Killi-Data ; however their contents are available as PDF on request to editor, Jean H. Huber, mailbox at the end of this page.
