The North-Western Journal of Zoology (North-West.J.Zool.) is the official zoology and animal ecology journal of the Herpetological Club of Oradea (HCO), Romania. It was founded in 2005 by a group of young researchers (PhD and PhD candidates) that recognize the necessity to create a new peer reviewed scientific journal in Romania. They also recognized the need of giving possibility for researchers to publish their research quickly, and in visible way. Since its formation, North-West.J.Zool. make the papers published available online without fee. North-West.J.Zool. is currently published two times every year (in June and December) but the editors are working in the possibility for increasing the number of issues to three per year. This will moreover depend on the number of high quality manuscripts submitted. From 2007 the editors introduced the “online first”, to facilitate a more rapid apparition of the accepted manuscripts.

PHYLLOMEDUSA publishes original research articles, short communications and review papers concerning the whole field of Herpetology. PHYLLOMEDUSA also maintains sections for Book Reviews. Manuscripts will be considered on condition that they have not been published elsewhere or are not under consideration for publication, in whole or in part, in another journal or book. Publication inPHYLLOMEDUSA, including color pictures, is free of charge. All manuscripts are subject to peer review. This process averages 90 days. Authors receive pdf proofs before publication and 30 reprints free of charge. Full-text pdf versions of all articles are available for free download in this homepage.

The journal publishes original research papers, reviews and method papers. While reviews should be designed as comparative surveys, summarizing the current knowledge from an evolutionary perspective, method papers should present new approaches or reviews on methods used in animal morphology. The research papers should be based on morphological investigation of invertebrates and vertebrates at the macroscopic, microscopic and ultrastructural level, including embryological studies.

Cybium, the International Journal of Ichthyology, edited by the Société Française d’Ichtyologie, publishes original articles, review articles, summaries of theses, book reviews and information of interest to members of the Society and ichthyologists in general.

GAYANA is a scientific journal published by Universidad de Concepción, Chile. It is the modern version of Gayana Oceanología and Gayana Zoología. Therefore its numeration starts at volume 63(1). GAYANA covers all aspects of zoology and oceanographic research. It is structured in five sections, defined by subject or discipline: Ecology, Biodiversity and Taxonomy, Earth Sciences, Evolutionary, and Applied Biology and Environmental Biology. Each section is in charge of an editor who receives and manages the manuscripts sent for evaluation in close collaboration with the editorial board.

The aim of Ichthyological Exploration of Freshwaters is the rapid publication of papers resulting from field work in ichthyology and the documentation of the biodiversity of freshwater fishes: • taxonomic diversity • ecological diversity • ethological diversity • reproductive diversity • zoogeographical diversity The emphasis is on tropical environments and fauna, but papers on subtropical and temperate fishes are also regularly published. The main focus is systematics and biology at the organism-level. Although no single approach is proscribed, the following kinds of articles have been published: • descriptions of new taxa, systematic revisions, and identification keys; • ecology, ethology, and reproductive biology, preferably based on field observation; • zoogeography and exploration reports; • data on status of threathened or endangered species and biota. Four fascicles of 96 pages (17 × 24 cm) are published each year, including many colour illustrations.

The journal Iheringia, Série Zoologia, edited by the “Museu de Ciências Naturais” of the “Fundação Zoobotânica do Rio Grande do Sul”, publishes original research findings in zoology with emphasis on taxonomy, systematics, morphology, natural history, and community or population ecology of species from current Neotropical fauna. Scientific notes will not be accepted for publication. Species lists without a taxonomic approach, or that are not the result of studies on the ecology or natural history of communities will not normally be accepted. The same applies to identification keys of groups of taxa defined by political boundaries. Authors wishing to inquire about the scope of the journal or the suitability of a particular topic are encouraged to contact the Editorial Board prior to submission. Furthermore, articles with a main focus on agronomy, veterinary, zootechny or other areas involving applied zoology will not be accepted. Its abbreviated title is Iheringia, Sér. Zool., which should be used in bibliographies, footnotes and bibliographical references and strips.

There is still a far from complete understanding of the complex ecosystems in the Neotropics, although they have been studied since the first expeditions of the old world naturalists Marcgrave, Humboldt, Spix, Darwin, Bates and Müller. The aims and scope of the Journal are, besides taxonomic and zoogeographic surveys, analyses of animal communities and their relationship with biotic and abiotic environmental conditions. This includes the fauna of both terrestrial and fresh water ecosystems in the Neotropics. Contributions that represent original research and mini-reviews are welcome. Manuscripts presenting just checklists and new geographic records are not considered for publication. If manuscripts do not meet the requirements of the journal, the editors reserve the right to reject manuscripts on submission or to ask for revisions prior to formal peer review.

Zoology in the Middle East is a journal which publishes original papers and review papers on ecology, zoogeography, animal biology, biodiversity, faunistics, systematics and morphology of the Middle East. It seeks to further the understanding of the Middle East as a zoogeographic unit and aims at improving the interchange of knowledge and ideas between specialists on different subjects and taxa.

The geographical scope of the journal is worldwide but a priority is given to the Bulgarian and Balkan fauna as well as the fauna of associated regions (e.g. Black Sea, Danubian Basin, Southeast Europe). Descriptions of new zoological methods, short reviews or annotations of zoological books and information about scientific events (past or forthcoming) are also accepted.
