Herpetology is a trial event for Division B and Division C in New York.

I thought it was a trial in both divisions?

The NY Scioly website has it listed for both.

The request for this thread listed it as a Division C event. The additional division has been added.

Hmm...does this mean that Herpetology will be an event next year? I wasn't sure if Invasives replaced Herp or not.

Ooh, I hope this is an event next year!

It will be unless they decide to skip right to Ornithology

On the tentative SOSI schedule, it lists Herpetology, so I'd expect it's next. You can wait another two years for your birds .

If only it was entomology instead of herpetology...
