About the journal
|
Established in 1910, the Bulletin of Entomological Research is an internationally renowned journal. The aims of the Bulletin are to further our global knowledge of entomology.
The Bulletin publishes high quality and original research papers, review articles and short communications concerning insects, mites, ticks or other arthropods of economic importance in agriculture, forestry, stored products, biological control, medicine, animal health and natural resource management.
The scope of papers addresses the biology, ecology, behaviour, physiology, systematics and genetics of species, communities and populations. This includes the interactions between species (with plants, hosts, natural enemies and other members of the same guild or community), novel methodologies, and especially the molecular biology and ecology of insects, in an applied context.
Papers should aim to generalize research findings into a wider entomological context rather than provide more entomological 'expectations'. The Bulletin does not publish the results of spray trials.
Key Features
- One of the original entomological journals, internationally recognised and respected.
- Original research, peer reviewed and edited to the highest standard by an International Editorial Board.
- Excellent international coverage - BER is one of the few journals that seriously deal with important papers coming out of and focusing on the developing world.
- Focuses on applied entomology - covers many 'traditional' areas of entomology currently being neglected by other journals.
- Includes review articles, book reviews and short communications.
- Bimonthly, available in print and on the Internet, with a one year back-file.
"I firmly believe that the Bulletin of Entomological Research is a very important journal on the international entomological scene, which continues, in particular, to address the needs of those working in the developing world - whether these are from countries in the latter area or from developed nations working overseas. There are no other journals that do this in a meaningful way, while also maintaining internationally accepted standards of excellence." Professor G.H.L Rothschild, Kent UK
"I continue to be amazed by the speed and professionalism with which BER handles my submission. I only wish it were so for all journals" Dr Kevin Floate, Lethbridge Research Centre, Canada

Instructions to Authors
The aims of the Bulletin of Entomological Research are to further our global knowledge of entomology through the generalisation of research findings rather than providing more entomological 'exceptions'. The Bulletin publishes high quality and original research papers, 'critiques', review articles and short communications concerning insects, mites, ticks or other arthropods of economic importance in agriculture, forestry, stored products, biological control, medicine, animal health and natural resource management. The scope of papers addresses the biology, ecology, behaviour, physiology and systematics of individuals and populations. This includes the interactions between species (plants, hosts for parasites, natural enemies and whole communities), novel methodological developments, including molecular biology, in an applied context. The Bulletin does not publish the results of spray trials.
Page Format.
The Bulletin is printed in a two-column format (column width of 80 mm) with a text area of 170 x 225 mm.
Text.
Papers should be typed single column, with double line spacing on one side of the paper only, with ample margins on all sides. Italic should be used for taxonomic nomenclature and bold for headings. Draft quality print from a word-processor is not acceptable. Standard abbreviations (e.g. fig. and figs) and metric units must be used. Use British rather than American spellings. Use 'z' rather than 's' spellings in words with 'ize'.
Disks.
Upon acceptance, authors are requested to submit a computer disk containing the final version of their paper along with the final manuscript to the editorial office. Please do the following: (1) Label disk clearly with author's name, title of journal and short title of the article; (2) Specify which word processing software (including which version) was used (e.g. WordPerfect 6.0); (3) Specify Mac, PC, Unix or other platform; (4) Keep a backup disk for reference and safety. .
Abstract.
Each paper must commence with an accurate, informative abstract in one paragraph, that is complete in itself and intelligible without reference to text or figures. It should not exceed 250 words. A short title should be provided as a running head.
Tables.
Tables should be reduced to the simplest form and present only essential data. They should be submitted on separate sheets at the end of the article and must fit into single column, full width or landscape (if absolutely necessary) format. A caption for each table must be provided. The use of vertical rules should be avoided.
Illustrations.
Copies of artwork only should be submitted. The original illustrations should accompany the paper after acceptance and revision. Captions should be typed on a separate sheet.
Line drawings
These should be sharp and clear, black ink on white paper. Computer generated figures and graphs should not contain grey tints or complicated hatching. Figures should be supplied at preferred size to fit single column, double column or landscape (if absolutely necessary) with clear lettering. No bold should be used.
Half-tone photographs
Black and white half-tone photographs are acceptable where they are a real contribution to the text. They should be prints of good quality at the intended final size with any required lettering or numbering inserted by the author.
Voucher specimens.
The deposition of voucher specimens should be considered where appropriate.
References.
References must be based on the name and year system, give full journal titles and conform to the following styles:
