Apidologie publishes original research articles, review articles and scientific notes on the biology of insects belonging to the superfamily Apoidea (Michener, 1944), the term "biology" being used in the broader sense.
The main topics include: behavior, ecology, pollination, genetics, physiology, toxicology and pathology. Systematic research can also be submitted to the extent that it concerns the Apoidea. Also accepted are research papers, including economic studies, on the rearing, exploitation and practical use of Apoidea and their products. Papers which are only of descriptive kind and of local interest are not accepted.
The accepted languages are English, French and German. The manuscripts are published in the original language with a detailed summary in the other two languages

Instructions to Authors
The journal Apidologie publishes original articles, review articles, scientific notes and proceedings of scientific meetings in English, French and German.
Address manuscripts to:
C. Courant, managing editor, UMR INRA-UAPV "Écologie des Invertébrés", Site Agroparc, 84914 Avignon Cedex 9, France - fax: (33) 4 32 72 26 02 e-mail: Christiane.Courant@avignon.inra.fr.
GENERAL PRESENTATION
Three complete sets of the manuscript should be submitted. The manuscript should be typed double-spaced with margins of at least 3.5 cm at top, bottom and sides for editor's markings. The authors are also encouraged to submit an electronic version (a single RTF file for text and tables. Figures should be saved in EPS, TIFF or JPEG formats using standard fonts and high resolution). In that case a single hard copy is sufficient. The Editorial Board maintains the option of returning, before evaluation, manuscripts to authors who do not comply with these recommendations. The author is advised to keep one manuscript and a set of figures. After the article has been accepted for publication, the authors must forward the revised version on disk or as attachment by e-mail to the editor. The publication of the text and black and white figures is free of charge.
A - Original articles
Original articles should be no longer than ten pages as a rule, i.e. about 30 000 characters, including tables and figures. The manuscript should be arranged as follows: title page, short abstract, introduction, materials and methods, results, discussion, acknowledgments, general summary (to be translated into French and German), references, figure legends, tables, figures. Section headings should be numbered following the international numbering system: (1.; 1.1.; 1.1.1., etc.). Tables and figures, with their captions, should not appear in the text, but be placed together on separate sheets at the end of the manuscript. Abbreviations should be punctuated. Uppercase letters should be accented; small capitals should not be used.
Title page
The title page should include the following: the title of the article, the surname and forenames (in full) of each author, the department and institution where the study was carried out, telephone and fax numbers and e-mail address of the corresponding author (this author being identified by an asterisk), a short title (running head) of no more than 45 characters, including spaces.
Abstract
The abstract (less than 850 characters) should be in a form suitable for abstracting services. Paragraphs, footnotes, references, cross-references to figures and tables and undefined abbreviations should be avoided.
Keywords
Up to five keywords should be supplied. Keywords may be taken from the title, abstract or text. The plural form and uppercase letters should be avoided. Keywords should be written in bold lowercase letters, separated by slashes.
General summary in French and German
This summary (less than 3 000 characters) is intended for a general audience and should be written in non-technical language. It should mention the aim of the study, place it in the scientific context, provide brief information about methods and sufficient information on results (with reference to the tables and figures), and lastly the discussion and conclusion. It will be translated into French and German by the editorial offices.
References
In the text, refer to author(s) name(s) and year of publication. When there are more than two authors, give the first author's name followed by et al. References cited together in the text should be arranged chronologically. Ex.: (Smith, 1979, 1980; Anderson and Smith, 1982a; Anderson et al., 1985). In the reference list, the references should appear in alphabetical order. If there is more than one author, the order is as follows: publications of a single author in chronological order; publications of the same author with one co-author in alphabetical order of the second author, and in chronological order; publications of the author with more than one co-author in chronological order. All entries in the reference list must correspond to references in the text and vice versa. The titles of journals should be abbreviated according to the rules of Biosciences Information Service (Biosis) or those of the Liste d'abréviations de mots des titres de publications en série (conforming to ISO 4, Centre international de ISSN, Paris). Words for which no abbreviation is given should be written in full. Examples are given below of the layout and punctuation to be used in the references:
Article: Anderson D.L., Trueman J.W.H. (2000) Varroa jacobsoni (Acari: Varroidae) is more than one species, Exp. Appl. Acarol. 24, 165-189.
Book: Ruttner F. (1988) Biogeography and taxonomy of honeybees, Springer Verlag, Berlin.
Chapter in a book: Southwick E.E. (1993) Physiology and social physiology of the honey bee, in: Graham J.M. (Ed.), The hive and the honey bee, Dadant and Sons, Hamilton, Illinois, pp. 171-196.
Illustrations (figures and tables)
Illustrations (one original and two good copies) should be numbered in Arabic numerals for figures and Roman numerals for tables, and should be referred to in the text by their number: Figure 1, Table I. Lettering (symbols, numbers, etc.), preferably in Arial font, should not differ from figure to figure and should be of sufficient size to remain legible after reduction (letters 1-2 mm high after reduction to either one or two column format). Figures should be presented in the form of line drawings on drawing or tracing paper or as sharp glossy prints. Half-tones should contain good contrast and should be originals (i.e. not already reproduced); line drawings should have a white background. Photographs should be presented in the form of plates to be reproduced without reduction (maximum size 12.5 x 19 cm). The lettering (height 1-2 mm) should not be placed any closer to the edges than 1 cm. The figure captions should be explicit so that the illustrations are comprehensible without reference to the text, and should be presented together on a separate sheet at the end of the paper. In the paper version of the journal, figures are in black and white (for colour, authors should make a contribution, prices on request), but they appear in colour in the electronic version. Tables should not exceed 84 characters per line (140 if in landscape format). The title of each table should be written above the corresponding table. Figures and tables published elsewhere cannot be accepted without the prior consent of the publisher and the author(s).
Electronic-only material
Electronic-only material is designed to provide supplementary information that is either too voluminous for printing or that is designed specifically for the Web, such as illustration in colour. Electronic-only material may include but is not restricted to: (Large) tables; Appendices; Programmes; Images; Videos; ... For more information on the submission of this material, (file requirements, etc.), please contact us.
B - Review articles
The length of review articles is limited to 18 printed pages, i.e. about 65 000 characters. The usual division into 'materials and methods, results and discussion' may be replaced by a more adapted structure.
C - Proceedings of scientific meetings
Summaries of communications are limited to 1 700 characters. They have no chapters, bibliographic references, or acknowledgments and are published by prior arrangement with the Editorial Board.
D - Scientific notes
Apidologie will publish brief notes of scientific interest to disseminate information and observation of preliminary nature and high interest. The length of such notes will be strictly restricted to two pages (about 5 500 signs) and publication will depend on the availability of space in the journal and general interest to readers of Apidologie. This form is intended to augment scientific communication and all submissions must include 'scientific note' in the title. Only the title will be translated into French and German.
PROOFS AND REPRINTS
Proofs will be sent to the author indicated on the title page. They should be carefully corrected and returned to the publisher within 48 h of reception. If this period is exceeded, the galleys will be proofed only by the editorial staff of the publishing house and printed without the authors' corrections. Should substantial changes in the original manuscript be requested (other than typographical errors), they will be made at the author's expense. The PDF file of the article will be provided free of charge. An order form for reprints - and, if required, for the publication of colour figures - will accompany the proofs.
COPYRIGHT
As soon as the article is published, the author is considered to have transferred his rights to the publisher.
