Abstract: It is exactly 100 years since the first International Congress of Entomology (ICE) was held in Brussels, Belgium in 1910. Using postage stamps, we review the history of the first congress and the 23 of congresses held from 1910 to 2008. Two congresses were frustrated by world wars. After the end of the Second World War, the ICE continued its peaceful and prosperous development. Postage stamps, postmarks, postcards and first day covers related to the ICE are described in detail.
