About the journal
Journal of Anatomy publishes original papers, invited review articles and book reviews. Its main focus is on contributions to understanding development, evolution and function through a broad range of anatomical approaches. Articles covering bioinformatics and other topics that clarify or provide tools for functional anatomical understanding will also be sympathetically considered. Priority will be given to experimental studies, to contributions based on molecular and cell biology, and on the application of modern functional imaging techniques. Studies that are essentially descriptive anatomy will only be published if the Editors consider that they are of functional significance.
Journal of Anatomy also publishes Brief Communications: these are brief papers (up to 3 journal pages) that present new ideas or data of particular originality and timeliness. The editors will also consider publishing Letters (1-2 pages) on scientific issues of clear relevance to the scope of interest of the Journal.

Instructions to Authors
Authors are required to sign an exclusive licence form (ELF) granting the Anatomical Society of Great Britain and Ireland exclusive publishing rights for all papers accepted for publication. Signature of the ELF is a condition of publication and papers will not be passed to the publisher unless a signed form has been received. Signature of the ELF does not affect ownership of copyright in the material. After publication authors retain the right to publish their paper in various medium/ circumstances (please refer to the form for more information). The ELF can be downloaded from the JAnat online submission website or http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/pdf/JOA_ELF2010.pdf.
Production will not start on your paper until we are in receipt of a signed exclusive licence form.
Government employees need to complete the AUTHOR WARRANTY sections, although copyright in such cases does not need to be assigned. For multi-author papers, it is the responsibility of the corresponding author to submit a signed ELF, on behalf of all contributors.
ONLINEOPEN
OnlineOpen is available to authors of primary research articles who wish to make their article available to non-subscribers on publication, or whose funding agency requires grantees to archive the final version of their article. With OnlineOpen the author, the author's funding agency, or the author's institution pays a fee to ensure that the article is made available to non-subscribers upon publication via Wiley Online Library, as well as deposited in the funding agency's preferred archive.
For the full list of terms and conditions, see http://wileyonlinelibrary.com/onlineopen#OnlineOpen_Terms.
Any authors wishing to send their paper OnlineOpen will be required to complete both the online payment form AND the ELF form available from our website at:
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/onlineOpenOrder (Please note this online form is for OnlineOpen use ONLY)
http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/pdf/JOA_ELF2010.pdf (ELF form; please send this to the Production Editor)
Prior to acceptance there is no requirement to inform an Editorial Office that you intend to publish your paper OnlineOpen if you do not wish to. All OnlineOpen articles are treated in the same way as any other article. They go through the journal's standard peer-review process and will be accepted or rejected based on their own merit.
SUBMISSIONS
Pre-submission English-language editing
Authors for whom English is a second language may choose to have their manuscript professionally edited before submission to improve the English. A list of independent suppliers of editing services can be found at http://authorservices.wiley.com/bauthor/english_language.asp . All services are paid for and arranged by the author, and use of one of these services does not guarantee acceptance or preference for publication.
Manuscripts
Manuscript submission online (please see http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/janat) can be as Word document (.doc) or RTF (.rtf). If submitting to Manuscript Central using LaTeX please upload a PDF file of the manuscript for the reviewers. Note that upon acceptance we will require your TeX/LaTeX source files to edit and typeset the article. Figures for review should be uploaded separately as GIF (.gif), JPEG (.jpg), TIFF (.tif), or EPS (.eps). On acceptance, you will be required to provide HIGH RESOLUTION GRAPHICS FILES (note that GIF (.gif), JPEG (.jpg), and PNG (.png) files are not acceptable for publication). The Digital Expert tool can be used to check figures before submission and identify any problems which could cause delays. Please use the following link for the Digital Expert tool http://dx.sheridan.com/about/main.html
Full upload instructions and support are available online from the submission site via the Get Help Now button. Please submit your covering letter or comments to the Editor in Chief when prompted online.
Revisions
Revised manuscripts must be submitted in their final form, within 2 months of authors being notified of conditional acceptance (pending satisfactory revision). Resubmissions after this time will be considered as new.
PRESENTATION
Text
Text should be divided into the following sections and appear in the order:
(1) title page (with short running page heading, title, authors names and affiliations);
(2) summary;
(3) keywords;
(4) introduction;
(5) main body;
(6) concluding remarks;
(7) acknowledgements;
(8) references;
(9) supplementary material;
(10) tables; and
(11) figure legends.
Authorities for the latin binomial of every organism are not used in the title or summary, and only on the first mention in the main body of the text.
Gene names and loci should be italic, proteins should be roman.
Virus nomenclature (and acronyms) should follow the guidelines of the International Committee on the Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV). The current report is: van Regenmortel MHV, Fauquet CM, Bishop DHL (Eds) (2001) Virus Taxonomy: Seventh Report of the International Committee on Taxonomy Viruses. San Diego: Academic Press. Authors are also advised to check the ITCV website for the latest information.
Chemical nomenclature should follow the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) definitive rules for nomenclature.
Industrial products should be referred to by their common names (ISO Publications 1831, 2474, etc.). In the absence of a common name, use the full name or a defined abbreviation, in preference to a trade name. At first mention, trade names should be capitalised.
Statistics: Calculations and the validity of deductions made from them should be checked and validated by a statistician.
Symbols, units and abbreviations should be expressed as Système International (SI) units, as given in: Baron DN (Ed) (1994) Units and Abbreviations: a guide for medical authors and editors. London: Royal Society of Medicine Press. In exceptional circumstances, others may be used, provided they are consistent. Apply to the Editorial Office for advice.
Author Contributions
Journal of Anatomy recommends that authors submit a short description of all contributions to their manuscript. Each author’s contribution should be described in brief, to appear immediately before the references. Authorship credit might include contributions to concept/design, acquisition of data, data analysis/interpretation, drafting of the manuscript, critical revision of the manuscript and approval of the article. Contributors who do not qualify as authors can also be listed and their particular contribution described. Further information on authorship and contributorship may be found here.
References
References in the text should be inserted in parentheses in full for single and dual authored papers, but using the first author and et al. for multiple authored papers. Reference to personal communications, unedited and un-refereed work, and work that is unpublished should be minimal and should appear in the text only. It is the author’s responsibility to obtain permission from colleagues to include their work as a personal communication.
References in the list should follow the Harvard system. Over 6 authors will be abbreviated to 3 authors et al. Refer to a recent copy of the journal for examples.
We recommend the use of a tool such as EndNote or Reference Manager for reference management and formatting.
EndNote reference styles can be searched for here.
Reference Manager reference styles can be searched for here.
Supplementary Material
Quantitative biological data too extensive for inclusion in the print edition of the journal may be presented in the online edition, as supplementary material (supp. mat.). As such, it will be reviewed as an integral part of the paper. The availability of supp. mat. should be indicated in the main manuscript by a paragraph, to appear after the references, providing titles of figures, tables, etc. There are guidelines regarding supplementary material here.
Graphics
Numerical results should be presented either as tables or figures, but not both. The journal welcomes colour figures and plates, when information would be lost if reproduced in black and white.
Tables: Tables should be typed on separate pages, as an integral part the text file. They should have a brief descriptive title and be self-explanatory. Units should appear in parentheses in the column headings, not in the body of the table. Repeated words or numerals on successive lines should be written in full. Footnotes should be minimal. When the precision of data is expressed as standard error (se) or standard errors of differences (sed) the degrees of freedom (df) should be given.
Electronic artwork: JAnat only accepts submission of electronic artwork. The journal accepts the following formats only:
(1) GRAPHS, CHARTS and MAPS as Encapsulated Postscript Format (.eps).
The best results are obtained with software applications that can output EPS format (Systat SigmaPlot; Adobe Illustrator; CorelDraw; Deneba Canvas; Macromedia Freehand); and
(2) PHOTOGRAPHS in Tagged Image File Format (.tif).
TIFF files should be supplied at a minimum resolution of 300 dpi (dots per inch) at the final size at which they are to appear in the journal. TIFF and EPS formats are the industry standard for archiving and print and online publication.
Detailed information on digital illustration standards is available at this webpage. The Digital Expert tool can also be used to check figures before submission: http://dx.sheridan.com/about/main.html
Please note that file formats other than EPS and TIF will be automatically rejected by the online submission website.
Colour files should be in CMYK format. Labelling should be in 10pt sans serif style font. Figure sections should be designated with upper case letters. Magnification bars should be given on electron and light micrographs.
Original artwork: If you are unable to submit electronic artwork, please provide two sets of all figures as high-quality glossy prints at the size that they are to appear in print. One set should be unlabelled.
Legends: Table and figure legends should be included within the text file and contain sufficient information to be understood without reference to the text. Each should begin with a short title for the figure. All symbols and abbreviations should be explained within the legend.
Cover images: Electronic artwork of high quality suitable for the cover of JAnat are welcomed. They should be sent to the Editorial Office and be accompanied by a relevant caption. It is preferred that images should be related to submitted papers. Contributors are required to grant exclusive publishing rights to the Society. It is the Publisher's policy not to publish items without signed exclusive licence forms.
PLAGIARISM
Authors must obtain permission to reproduce any copyright material, and include an acknowledgement of the source in their Article. Authors should be aware that the unreferenced use of the published and unpublished ideas, writing or illustrations of others, from whatever source (including research grant applications), or submission of a complete paper under 'new' authorship in the same or a different language, constitutes plagiarism.
CONDITIONS OF ACCEPTANCE
Manuscripts are accepted on the understanding that they will not be published elsewhere in any form, without the prior consent of the Society. Your material will not be passed to the Publisher without receipt of:
1. covering letter documenting any revisions required by the editor;
2. signed exclusive licence form;
3. completed accepted artwork checklist - documenting the graphic files supplied in accordance with industry standards; and
4. EPS files output from vector based software/ 800dpi TIFF files. LOW RESOLUTION ARTWORK SUBMITTED FOR REVIEW IS NOT SUITABLE FOR PRINT OR ONLINE PUBLICATION.
ARTICLE TRACKING
NEW: Online production tracking is now available for your article through Blackwell’s Author Services.
Author Services enables authors to track their article – once it has been accepted – through the production process to publication online and in print. Authors can check the status of their articles online and choose to receive automated e-mails at key stages of production. The author will receive an e-mail with a unique link that enables them to register and have their article automatically added to the system.
