Papers submitted to Systematic Entomology should be original contributions to insect taxonomy and systematics, although descriptive morphology and other subjects bearing on taxonomy may be considered. Emphasis is placed on the selection of comprehensive or revisionary studies, and on work with a biological or zoogeographical relevance. Papers submitted must not have been published or accepted for publication elsewhere.
Papers may be of any length up to about 50 printed pages but should be in clear, concise English. The editors reserve the right to make minor textual corrections and changes that do not alter the author's meaning.
The journal is moving to electronic submission of manuscripts. Until the dedicated system is in place, authors should submit manuscripts as a Word document with figures in a separate file, as an e-mail attachment to the appropriate editor. Paper submission in quadruplicate (original with three copies, including figures) will be accepted, although any relevant data matrices should be submitted as computer files for the review process. All accepted manuscripts must be electronic, as e-mail attachment or on disk/CD-ROM. Examine recent issues of the journal, and the journal's and Blackwell's web pages for details of acceptable style and format. Manuscripts must be typed on one side of the paper and double-spaced throughout. Margins should not be justified. Words to be italicized may be indicated in italic print or underlined. Avoid capitalization except for abbreviations of depositories and the names of countries indicated for material examined.
The name, full postal address and e-mail address of the corresponding author should be given on the first page.
The title of the paper should be informative but concise. A short title (for page headlines) should be given. The abstract should be a concise summary of the significant content and salient conclusions of the work. Tables should be used sparingly and should be self-explanatory. Each table must be typed double-spaced on a separate sheet and should not be ruled up.
Figures should be of publishable quality and about twice their published size, labelled large enough to allow reduction and numbered consecutively in the sequence referred to in the text. Drawings must be prepared in black waterproof ink. Drawings and photographs that make up separate parts of the same figure must be mounted together and labelled consecutively (preferably left to right, top to bottom) with capital letters. REference in the text should be: Fig. 1, Figs 2, 3 and Figs 1; 2A,C. Figure legends should be grouped together on a separate sheet. The format for figure legends is: Fig. 1. Genus species. A, Habitus;B,C, male genitalia; D-F, head (D), thoras (E) and abdomen (F). In the full-text online edition of the journal, figure legends may be truncated in abbreviated links to the full screen version. Therefore the first 100 characters of any legend should inform the reader of key aspects of the figure.
Colour illustrations are welcome. An appropriate editor should be contacted to negotiate the cost of publication.
We would like to receive your artwork in electronic form. Please save vector graphics (e.g. line artwork) in Encapsulated Postscript Format (EPS), and bitmap files (e.g. half-tones) in Tagged Image File Format (TIFF). Figures should not be embedded in the text file. Detailed information on our digital illustration standards is available on the BSL Homepage at: http://www.blackwell-science.com/elecmed/authors.htm.

References in the text should be in the form (Allis & Webb, 1972a, b; Brown, 1981) and should be collated at the end of the paper with periodical titles in full.
Papers must conform to the articles and recommendations of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. New taxa must be clearly differentiated from existing taxa. Holotypes, lectotypes and neotypes must be deposited in a recognized scientific or educational institution that maintains a research collection, with proper facilities for preserving name-bearing types, and makes the accessible for study. New distributional and other noteworthy records should be documented by voucher specimens deposited in a museum or similar institution. The abbreviations gen.n., sp.n., syn.n. and comb.n. should be used to distinguish all new taxa, synonymies or new combinations. An author's name must follow the name of a taxon without any intervening punctuation, and a comma must be inserted between the name of the author and the date of publication. If a species is transferred from its original genus, the author's name must then be placed in parentheses. The name of a subsequent user of a scientific name must be separated from that of the original author by a semicolon or the word 'of'.
In describing new species, one specimen must be designated as the holotype; other specimens mentioned in the original description are to be designated as paratypes. Any additional specimens considered but not regarded as paratypes should be listed separately. The complete data of the holotype and paratypes, and the institutions in which they are deposited, must be recorded in the original description, e.g.:
Holotype, , GREAT BRITAIN: Essex, Rainham, Warwick Wood, 22.vi.1977 (Morris) (BMNH).
Paratypes, NEPAL: 1, 1 , Chautara Dist., Choche Ridge, 2500 m, ex Quercus, 17.vii.1983 (Brendell) (BMNH); 1 , 2 , Katmandu, 1350 m, 6.vii.1982 (Allen) (BMNH; NMNH).
All material examined should be listed in similar format: localities should be cited in order of increasing precision as in the examples; names of countries should be in capitals. Sex symbols should be used rather than 'male' and 'female'.
Papers not conforming with these directives are liable to be returned to the author.
Fifty offprints of each paper are provided free (100 to members of the Society); more copies may be ordered at current prices when proofs are returned. Authors may be required to pay for excessive alterations to proofs. Page charges are not levied.
