Annales Zoologici Fennici
Annales Zoologici Fennici publishes original research reports, in-depth reviews, and commentary on all aspects of animal ecology, evolution, and related fields.
Scope

    Annales Zoologici Fennici is an established, international, peer-reviewed journal, open to all scientists, appearing in six-number yearly volumes (until 2002 quarterly). It was founded in 1964 by Societas Biologica Fennica Vanamo replacing its predecessor which had been published between 1932 and 1963. Between 1978 and 1994 it was published by the Finnish Zoological Publishing Board, and since 1994 by the Finnish Zoological and Botanical Publishing Board.

    Annales Zoologici Fennici publishes mainly original research reports, but also in-depth reviews and commentaries on all aspects of animal ecology and evolution, and fields related to them. Our aim is to promote papers which focus on the interactions among various components in the past and present environments by using integrative and cross-disciplinary approaches. This may be achieved by employing tools from different fields of research, such as (but not restricted to):

    • ecology and paleoecology,
    • molecular ecology and phylogeography,
    • conservation biology and wildlife management,
    • animal behaviour and interactions (including recognition systems and mechanisms),
    • paleontology (except systematics and taxonomy) and evolution,
    • bioenergetics (energy flow through an ecosystem and its elements, carrying capacity).

    We also encourage submissions of articles on research methodology that present and/or discuss methods of data gathering and processing, the interpretation of results through statistical testing, and philosophical issues related to the natural sciences. Both theoretical and empirical works are warmly welcome. We, however, discourage submissions of purely descriptive works and manuscripts of restricted interest.
