The author reminds the origin and activities of the Polish Entomological Society in Lvov and provides a list of Lvov entomologists. The Society was estabilished 85 years ago in Lvov and operated there until WWII. In 1920 the entomologists grouped in the Polish Naturalists Society in Lvov decided to establish the Entomological Section. Two years later the Section's Plenary Meeting transformed it into an independent society: the Polish Entomological Society. In the meantime the Meeting accepted the statutes of the Society and appointed the first board. Professor Dr Zygmunt MOKRZECKI, Warsaw, was elected its first president and after his death, in 1936, Prof. Eng. Aleksander KOZIKOWSKI succeeded him. Scientific activities of the Society were documented by its own press organ, The Journal of Polish Entomological Society issued since 1922. The first editor in chief was Dr Jan KINEL, who published 17 volumes until 1938. The list of Lvov entomologists is provided for the first time. It contains 32 names, including Jan NOSKIEWICZ, Maksymilian SIŁA-NOWICKI, Marian NUNBERG, Andrzej SZEPTYCKI, Andrzej SZUJECKI and Jadwiga ZŁOTORZYCKA. For 19 of them their former addresses in Lvov are included.
