Gayana is related to all aspects of research in zoology and oceanography of South America. The specific topics covered by Gayana are based on original works and investigations and revision articles on taxonomy, systematics, philogenia, biogeography and oceanology. Evolutive aspects are considered within these topics based on morphology, physiology, ecology and paleontology.
Former Title:
