Journal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics

Journal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics

Journal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics is an international peer-reviewed journal dedicated to publishing high-quality, original, and scientifically rigorous research on the diversity, taxonomy, systematics, and evolution of insects and other arthropods, encompassing both extant and fossil taxa. The journal gives priority to high-quality manuscripts that make significant and lasting contributions to the systematics and biodiversity of insects and other terrestrial arthropods. Its scope includes, but is not limited to, taxonomic revisions, descriptions of new taxa, monographs, catalogues, applications of biology and anatomy in taxonomy, biodiversity, historical biogeography, phylogeny, evolution, palaeontology, theoretical methodology in systematics, biogeographical distributional patterns, as well as regional checklists. The accepted submissions are not restricted to any geographical region, and we consider papers in the mentioned areas from all parts of the world. Extensive faunistic revisions on a specific arthropod group throughout a country or wider biogeographical region are highly encouraged. Manuscripts that are solely of local interest, like short checklists, local faunistic studies, and occasional species records, will not be considered for publication. Country species records that are sufficiently numerous and that are well-supported by a taxonomic and biogeographical background, particularly those related to species of economic importance, may be considered for publication after peer review.
