Journal Guide

International Journal of Odonatology (IJO) is aimed at providing a publication outlet for the growing number of students of Odonata. It will address subjects such as the ecology, ethology, physiology, genetics, taxonomy, phylogeny and geographic distribution of species. Reviews will be by invitation, but authors who plan to write a review on a subject of interest to the journal are encouraged to contact the editor.

International Journal of Pest Management publishes original research papers and reviews concerned with pest management in the broad sense, covering the control of pests (invertebrates, vertebrates and weeds) and diseases of plants, fungi and their products – including biological control, varietal and cultural control, chemical control and interference methods. The management of invasive species is of special interest. We also encourage submissions dealing with interactions of multiple pests such as arthropods and plant pathogens, pathogens and weeds or weeds and arthropods as well as those dealing with the indirect and direct effects of climate change on sustainable agricultural practices. The journal covers the following scientific topics: Population dynamics of pests in relation to management strategies. Assessment of pest or weed and disease damage characteristics / levels and associated yield loss; damage and economic thresholds; sampling and monitoring methods. Pest management systems including decision support and risk analyses. Analysis of farmers’ perceptions of pest management constraints or technologies and of economic benefits supporting studies of the efficacy of pest management at field- and farm-scale. The relationship of pest management to the wider aspects of farming systems and rural development policy. Pre and post-harvest pest management. Novel pest management approaches, technology, methods and techniques Non-target effects of pesticide use / of biological control introductions. Life-history strategies and evolution of pest organisms / biological control agents. Plant defense mechanism in the context of pest management. Environmental sustainability in relation to pest management practices.

E-ISSN: 2078-6913 For over 60 years IBRA has published Bee Science that"s Worldwide and World Class! TheJournal of Apicultural Research. incorporatingBee World. publishes original research articles. original theoretical papers. notes. comments and authoritative reviews on scientific aspects of the biology. ecology. natural history and culture of all types of bee (superfamily Apoidea).

All papers submitted to the journal undergo review by the editors and independent peer referees. and papers are accepted for publication only if they are of the required standard and have not been published elsewhere. Copyright of published papers is normally held by the International Bee Research Association. Use of DOI numbers offering you an easier search function We are still adding DOI numbers to our back issues and are grateful for your patience while we complete this task. Some history The Journal of Apicultural Research has been IBRA"s journal for reporting experimental science for over 40 years. The journal"s very first volume carried Woyke"s classic paper on diploid drones. and every volume since has contained important contributions to scientific literature. Because of the high quality of the journal"s papers. it has come to be respected as a prestigious outlet for reporting scientific studies of the biology. ecology. natural history and culture of all types of bees. Indeed. many scientists have come to respect the journal as the flagship of apicultural journals. ©ISSN 0021-8839 International Bee Research Association. 2009. All rights reserved.

The Journal of Arachnology, a publication devoted to the study of Arachnida, is published three times each year by the American Arachnological Society. Subscriptions accompany society membership or may be purchased by institutions.

The Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity (previous title was Journal of Korean Nature) is an official journal of National Science Museum of Korea (NSMK) and Korea National Arboretum (KNA).

The scope of journal is wide and multidisciplinary that publishes original research papers, review articles, as well as conceptual, technical and methodological papers on all aspects of biological diversity-its description, analysis and conservation, and its application by humankind. This wide and multidisciplinary journal aims to provide both scientists and practitioners in conservation theory, policy and management with comprehensive and applicable information.

The Journal of Insect Behavior offers peer-reviewed research articles and short critical reviews on all aspects of the behavior of insects and other terrestrial arthropods such as spiders, centipedes, millipedes, and isopods. Under an internationally respected editorial board, the journal discusses technological innovations and new developments in the field. The emphasis is on a wide range of topics, including behavioral ecology, motor patterns and recognition, and genetic determinants. The Editors are Thomas L. Payne, College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources, University of Missouri, Columbia, USA, and Timothy D.

International in scope and audience, the Journal of Insect Conservation publishes articles on the conservation of insects and related invertebrates. The papers presented touch on all aspects of conservation and biodiversity of insects and closely related groups such as Arachnids and Myriapods, including ecological work with conservation implications. Articles focus on both theoretical and practical topics, addressing the subject at the community, population and species level. Coverage includes aspects of behaviour, taxonomy and genetics, and ranges from local to global. Review articles are included, as well as points of view which are likely to stimulate debate. The journal is produced in association with Butterfly Conservation, a wildlife charity dedicated to the conservation of lepidoptera and their habitats which was closely involved in developing its concept. Further information on Butterfly Conservation and its work is available at www.butterfly-conservation.org.

All aspects of insect physiology are published in this journal which will also accept papers on the physiology of other arthropods, if the referees consider the work to be of general interest. The coverage includes endocrinology (in relation to moulting, reproduction and metabolism), pheromones, neurobiology (cellular, integrative and developmental), physiological pharmacology, nutrition (food selection, digestion and absorption), homeostasis, excretion, reproduction and behaviour. Papers covering functional genomics and molecular approaches to physiological problems will also be included. Communications on structure and applied entomology can be published if the subject matter has an explicit bearing on the physiology of arthropods. Review articles and novel method papers are also welcomed.This journal is available at a special rate to members of the Entomological Society of America http://www.entsoc.org/.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
