Dear ichnologist colleagues,

It is with pleasure, that I invite you to attend SLIC 2015, the Third Latin American Symposium on Ichnology, during 17th to 27th October 2015. This is Uruguay’s time. Colonia del Sacramento will be the place to host this meeting, wishing to bring together ichnologists from different research areas. We hope to receive colleagues not only from Latin America, but also from other continents. This meeting will consist of invited talks, oral presentations, posters, pre, intra and post-symposium fieldtrips.

Colonia del Sacramento is a historical city, which makes it the destination of tourists who enjoy its security and tranquility.

Please look at the first circular and a pre-registration form, that will help us with the organization.

Hoping to see you in Colonia next year,

All the best,

Mariano Verde
