ASSOCIATION FOR MEXICAN CAVE STUDIES

The mission of the Association for Mexican Cave Studies is to promote the study, exploration and conservation of caves in Mexico and adjacent areas. The AMCS was established in 1962, and it is an official Project of the National Speleological Society. The AMCS publishes its annual Activities Newsletter, along with occasional Bulletins, and welcomes material for these.

See the contacts page for the current board, including the editor for possible submissions. For announcements of new publications, see the AMCS Facebook page.
