Members
Membership in SSC specialist groups is by invitation, and the groups are dissolved and reconstructed every three years. However, if a country has no representative, BSG Chairs are always happy to receive self nominations. Membership in the Bat Specialist Group was revised in 2007. The BSG is currently comprised of over 100 individuals.
