The history of the Apterygota meetings goes back to the era where Apterygota were defined as the ‘wing-less insects’. From the start of these meetings, the focus has been very much on the taxonomy of especially Collembola and Thysanura. Nowadays the scientific community working on this group of animals is still very much alive.
