JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGICAL SYSTEMATICS AND EVOLUTIONARY RESEARCH

英文简介

The Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research (JZSER) is a peer-reviewed, international forum for publication of high-quality research on systematic zoology and evolutionary biology. The aim of the journal is to provoke a synthesis of results from morphology, physiology, animal geography, ecology, ethology, evolutionary genetics, population genetics, developmental biology and molecular biology. Besides empirical papers, theoretical contributions and review articles are welcome. Purely taxonomic and predominantly cytogenetic manuscripts will not be accepted except in rare cases, and then only at the Editors-in-Chief's discretion. Only papers in English language are accepted.The following aspects are relevant for the editors? decision whether a manuscript should be considered for publication in JZSER: Is the study of supra-regional relevance (in case of phylogeographic studies) and/or is it of broad systematic relevance? Does the study address a hot topic, is it cutting edge or controversial? Does it cover a taxonomic group comprehensively? Does the manuscript provide an example of a general biological principle and/or extends this principle or provides a new "twist" to it? Does the study use a modern set of methods to illuminate a biological problem and / or is the set of molecular genetic markers used sufficient to allow the conclusions drawn? Is the manuscript well written with an acceptable level of English and are figures and tables carefully prepared (also regarding readability) illustrating the relevant results in a clear and comprehensive way? Are the hypotheses well presented and the results discussed in an evolutionary sense? Not all of these criteria have to be fulfilled, but they help the editors to select papers that presumably will be of interest for a broad readership.

中文简介

《动物系统学和进化研究杂志》(JZSER)是一个同行评议的国际论坛，旨在发表关于系统动物学和进化生物学的高质量研究。该杂志的目的是综合形态学、生理学、动物地理学、生态学、动物行为学、进化遗传学、种群遗传学、发育生物学和分子生物学的研究成果。除了实证论文外，还欢迎理论贡献和评论文章。纯分类和细胞遗传学手稿将不被接受，除非在极少数情况下，然后只有在主编的自由裁量权。只接受英文论文。以下几个方面与编辑决定是否考虑在JZSER出版稿件有关:超区域相关性研究(在系统地理学研究中)和/或具有广泛的系统相关性吗?这项研究针对的是一个热门话题，是前沿的还是有争议的?它是否全面地涵盖了一个分类群?手稿是否提供了一个一般生物学原理的例子和/或扩展了这个原理，或提供了一个新的“扭曲”?这项研究是否使用了一套现代的方法来阐明一个生物学问题和/或一套分子遗传标记的使用是否足以使得出的结论?稿件是否写得好，英语水平是否可以接受，是否精心准备了图表(也包括可读性)，清晰全面地说明了相关结果?假设是否被很好地提出，结果是否在进化的意义上得到了讨论?并非所有这些标准都必须满足，但它们有助于编辑选择可能会引起广大读者兴趣的论文。
