The World Congress of Malacology in 2022 will be hosted by the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) München (Faculties of Biology and Medicine, Campus Martinsried) during the first week of August, 2022 in the southwest of Munich. WCM 2022 follows its direct predecessors in Asilomar (California 2019), Penang (Malaysia 2016), and at the Azores (Portugal 2013), and many others since 1962, and we will celebrate its 60th birthday. The congress will be organized on behalf of UNITAS Malacologica by a team from LMU, Staatliche Naturwissenschaftliche Sammlungen Bayerns, SNSB, and the Technische Universität München, being headed by the president of UNITAS Malacologica, Gerhard Haszprunar. The theme of WCM 2022 is all aspects of diversity, function, ecology, evolution, and conservation of extant and fossil Mollusca. Special topics of the congress include evolutionary and developmental aspects, taxonomy, phylogeny, paleontology, genomics, functional morphology, as well as all methodological innovations concerning malacological aspects.
