About the journal

ACTA ICHTHYOLOGICA ET PISCATORIA (AI&P) is an international, peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes articles based on original experimental data or experimental methods, or new analyses of already existing data, in any aspect of ichthyology and fisheries (fin-fish only). AI&P is issued on paper and in electronic form at http://www.aiep.pl (the journal is primary paper). The paper version appears two times a year. The electronic version is freely available on the internet (Open Access Journal) and the papers within individual issues are published as they are accepted, without waiting until the issue is complete. This substantially shortens the time of publication.
It is expected that investigators running experiments on live fish, and intending to publish their results at AI&P, will have obtained an approval of a local ethic committee for scientific experiments on animals or any other local animal care committee.
All authors listed on a manuscript must agree to its submission. We assume that the corresponding author, on the letter of submission, signifies that these conditions have been fulfilled.
Review process. Advancement of fisheries science is the major requirement in the evaluation process of AI&P. Preliminary suitability of manuscripts is determined by editors or members of the Editorial Advisory Board and submissions with insufficient priority are rejected promptly. Manuscripts not prepared in the advised style will be sent back to authors without scientific review. All other submissions are registered and the authors are notified (by e-mail) with the reference number, that must be quoted in subsequent correspondence. The registered manuscripts are sent to independent experts for scientific evaluation.
Conflict of interests. Authors of research articles evaluating or examining commercial products (e.g. fish feeds, anaesthetics, drugs, vaccines, etc.) should disclose to the editor, at the time of submission, any financial arrangement they may have with a manufacturer of such product or with a company making a competing product. It is expected that: 1) authors of such articles will not have any financial interest in a company (or its competitor) that makes a product discussed in the article; or 2) such arrangements will be in a clear form communicated to the reader.
All persons involved in the evaluation process (reviewers, members of the Editorial Advisory Board, editors) must report to the Editor-in-Chief any conflict of interest with regard to a manuscript under review or commercial companies involved with a product under study.
Permissions. Any material borrowed from other sources must be accompanied by a written statement from both author and publisher giving permission to AI&P for reproduction. It is assumed that authors citing papers still in press, unpublished data, and/or personal communications have obtained permission from all persons involved.
Copyright transfer. Upon acceptance of manuscripts, the authors convey, and otherwise transfer all rights, title, interest, and copyright ownership in said work to the Publishing House of the West Pomeranian University of Technology (PHWPUT) (publisher of AI&P). Consequently, any material from published (or accepted) articles cannot be published without the prior written permission of the PHWPUT.
Disclaimer. The data and opinions appearing in the articles and advertisements herein are the responsibility of the author. Accordingly, the Publisher and the Editor accept no liability whatsoever for the consequences of any such inaccurate of misleading data, opinion or statement.
Printing costs and reprints. The publishing costs of the AI&P are covered by the PHWPUT. The authors do not pay per-page charges. The only exception is the costs of colour pages (in 2006 the cost price one colour page was 488 PLN (=165 USD). The authors obtain 25 reprints free of charge and a free PDF file can be downloaded from our web page. Additional copies of paper reprints may be ordered at cost price. A recent interpretation of the Polish taxation law treats free reprints as taxable income. We assume that the corresponding author is a sole recipient of the free reprints. Therefore all corresponding authors will receive a taxation form reporting this income. It is expected that corresponding authors will report this income in their annual tax return in their countries of residence (only where applicable).

Instructions to Authors
PREPARATION OF MANUSCRIPTS
Submissions are only electronic (editor@aiep.pl). Preferable format is "doc" (optionally accompanied by a "pdf" file). The manuscripts submitted electronically should be arranged in a way facilitating their transfer to reviewers and the evaluation process itself (single file, with figures and tables pasted into the text). The overall size of such manuscript should permit its subsequent distribution to reviewers. Revised, accepted MSs, should be prepared in the same way, but in addition they should be accompanied by all illustrations saved as separate files (please note that Tables are not illustrations). Oversized files (over 20 MB) should be sent via a suitable Internet service such as Yousendit or Free. Any necessary paper correspondence should be sent to the following address:
Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, Editorial Office,
(c/o WNoZiR - ZUT),
ul. Kazimierza Królewicza 4, 71-550 Szczecin, POLAND
The text. The manuscript should be arranged according to the following pattern: title (please use capital letters only when needed), names of authors (with first names spelled out, middle names as initial, and last name CAPITALIZED), affiliations of all authors, up to 8 key words, detailed mailing address of the corresponding author with the phone and fax numbers, and e-mail address, running title, structured summary, Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, Acknowledgements, References, tables, figures (at the stage of a revised manuscript source files are needed for graphs), figure captions (including full legend describing the figure and explaining all the symbols used) must be pasted below respective figures (do not repeat them). An excess of headings and subheadings should be avoided. Only generic and specific names should be set in italics. Any issue not covered by the present instruction should be resolved based on “The scientific style and format”. The CBE Manual for Authors, Editors, and Publishers. Sixth Edition 1994, Cambridge University Press. All fish names must be consistent with the FishBase (except for taxonomic papers, which are free to challenge FishBase concepts)
The summary should be divided into small chapters: Background (Why the study was initiated? Why this type of study is needed? and What is the aim of the present paper?),
Material and Methods, Results, principal Conclusion (with a closing remarks—What is the importance of the present findings? and What directions it sets for future research?) Please note that the Conclusion is not a summary of the results, but a more general statement. While writing the summary please keep in mind that it may be also reprinted separately by abstracting/indexing journals or databases. In research notes a short conventional abstract should be written instead of a structured summary
Tables must be self-explanatory, and contain synthesized (not primary) data and not exceed A4 size.
Figures. Only well reproducible figures can be published. Excessive illustrative material should be avoided. Colour figures will be printed on author’s expense and therefore any colour pictures should be arranged in plates fitting into the page size of AI&P. Submitted manuscripts should have illustrations saved in a format taking up little space, while the accepted manuscripts must include plates saved in "tif" format; resolution 300 dpi (colour) or 600 dpi (line art) at print size. Please note that line art pictures (maps etc.) must be done electronically (not scanned!). You can find an example of a good map at:
References in the text should be quoted by the authors name and date (in parentheses). When the author’s name is cited in parentheses please do not separate the name and year with coma. If there are more then two authors, only first one should be named, followed by “et al.” The reference list at the end of paper should follow the examples shown below:
