EURAPA was a European APA active from 1982 to 1985. The initial Official Editor was Joachim Henke, succeeded around 1984 by Wolf von Witting.

Ansible #14 (December 1980) said:

Bellis & Engholm report a European apa (bimonthly, £1.50/year, contribution 12pp/year min: Joachim Henke [address in Germany]

Despite this, it would seem that the first mailing did not appear until 1982. Ansible #30 (November 1982) additionally provided:

Eurapa is of necessity a European apa, with 50-copy requirement, dues 10DM (=£2) yearly: Joachim Henke [address as before]

CounterClock #26 (October 2016) identifies eight mailings and a ninth unpublished:

  • Mailing 1 – November 1982
  • Mailing 2 – January 1983
  • Mailing 3 – March 1983
  • Mailing 4 – May 1983
  • Mailing 5 – July 1983
  • Mailing 6 – April 1984
  • Mailing 7 – September 1984
  • Mailing 8 – March 1985
  • Mailing 9 – 24 pages, still unpublished

Birmingham Science Fiction Group Newsletter #157 (September 1984) reported that Wolf von Witting was the new Official Editor and was 'looking to swell the ranks of the apa with more British SF fans'.

Aside from Henke and von Witting, most of the names below are identified through mention in Cloud Chamber #18. Martin Tudor's membership is cited in his 1988 TAFF platform. Lynne Ann Morse's membership is noted in CounterClock #23.
