Myrmecological News

Journal Title：Myrmecological News

Taxonomic manuscripts with isolated species descriptions are generally discouraged, especially for genera with large numbers of undescribed species; it lies at the discretion of the editorial team whether such manuscripts are considered. Papers on new distribution records will be considered if the new records are sufficiently important or unexpected from a biogeographical perspective. Such papers could, for example, discuss relevant biological/ecological data and/or biogeographical implications such as analysis by species-distribution modelling.

In detail, research areas covered by Myrmecological News include: behaviour; biogeography and faunistics; biological-pest control; chemical ecology; climate-change biology; cognition and learning; comparative and functional morphology; community ecology; conservation biology and bioindication; cytogenetics; ecology and evolution of (endo)symbioses; ecosystem (dis)services; foraging strategies; fossils; fragmentation ecology; genomics; histology; immune research; (integrative) taxonomy; interspecific hybridisation; invasion biology; life-history research; methodology in community quantification; national checklists; neurobiology; niche ecology; orientation and navigation; phenology; phylogeny and phylogeography; population genetics; sensory physiology; social evolution; social parasitism; sociogenomics; stable isotopes; tools for routine identification.

一般不鼓励发表带有孤立物种描述的分类学手稿，尤其是对于有大量未描述物种的属；是否考虑此类手稿由编辑团队自行决定。如果新记录从生物地理学角度来看足够重要或出乎意料，则会考虑有关新分布记录的论文。例如，此类论文可以讨论相关的生物/生态数据和/或生物地理学含义，例如通过物种分布模型进行分析。
