Species of management concern that have been affected by human activities typically are characterized by low genetic diversity, which can adversely affect their ability to adapt to environmental changes. We used 18 microsatellite markers to genotype 362 Florida manatees (Trichechus manatus latirostris), and investigated genetic diversity, population structure, and estimated genetically effective population size (Ne). The observed and expected heterozygosity and average number of alleles were 0.455 6 0.04, 0.479 6 0.04, and 4.77 6 0.51, respectively.

    97TH ANNUAL MEETING OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MAMMALOGISTS 20-24 JUNE 2017 UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO -MOSCOW, IDAHO- PROGRAM The 2017 American Society of Mammalogists Annual Meeting logo was designed by Audrey DiGirolamo (seated left), who is majoring in Studio Art and Design at the University of Idaho. Associate Professor Delphine Keim’s (seated right) graphic design class developed logos with Idaho mammal themes as a class project. The best design was selected by the local committee for use at the meeting. 97TH ANNUAL MEETING OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MAMMALOGISTS 20-24 JUNE 2017 UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO -MOSCOW, IDAHO- AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MAMMALOGISTS (ASM) The American Society of Mammalogists (ASM) was established in 1919 for the purpose of promoting interest in the study of mammals. AN OVERVIEW In addition to being among the most charismatic of animals, mammals are important in many disciplines from paleontology to ecology and evolution. We, of course, are mammals and thus are in the interesting position of studying ourselves in quest of a greater understanding of the role of mammals in the natural world. The ASM is currently composed of thousands of members, many of who are professional scientists. Members of the Society have always had a strong interest in the public good, and this is reflected in their involvement in providing information for public policy, resources management, conservation, and education. The Society hosts annual meetings and maintains several publications. The flagship publication is the Journal of Mammalogy, a journal produced 6 times per year that accepts submissions on all aspects of mammalogy. The ASM also publishes Mammalian Species (accounts of individual species) and Special Publications (books that pertain to specific taxa or topics), and we maintain a mammal images library that contains many exceptional photographs of mammals.
