Abstract
Since its establishment in 1894, the Havana research site of the Illinois Natural History Survey has been identified by a confusing array of names. It is fitting, therefore, that at the dedication of the expanded and improved facility we pay tribute to the founding genius of the Survey and of the Havana research effort as well as bring the confusion of multiple names to an end. This field station, which has been the scene of so many significant scientific investigations, is to be known henceforth as the Stephen A. Forbes Biological Station.
