Abstract: Recently I was privileged to be the first Maltese to take part in the annual congress of the Societa ltaliana di Biologia Marina (SIBM), which this year was held in Trieste. SIBM, founded on June 4, 1969, in Leghorn, aims to enhance and promote the development of marine biology, not just in Italy, but also in the Mediterranean. It is organised into five interest groups or 'committees': Aquaculture, Benthos, Nekton and Fisheries, Plankton and Management of Coastal Resources. Its current president is Angelo Tursi. From just 110 members in 1969, SIBM now has 830, including some in Monaco, France, Spain and Malta.
