PhytoKeys is a peer-reviewed, open-access, rapidly disseminated journal launched to accelerate research and free information exchange in taxonomy, phylogeny, biogeography and evolution of plants.
PhytoKeys aims to apply the latest trends and methodologies in publishing and preservation of digital materials to meet the highest possible standards of the cybertaxonomy era.
PhytoKeys will publish papers in systematic botany containing taxonomic/floristic data on any taxon of any geological age from any part of the world with no limit to manuscript size.
PhytoKeys will consider for publishing works on the following topics:
- descriptions of new taxa, if they are accompanied with proper diagnoses, keys and/or distinction from close relatives or similar taxa
- taxonomic revisions of extant (or ''recent'') and fossil plant groups
- checklists and catalogues
- phylogenetic and evolutionary analyses
- papers in descriptive and/or historical biogeography
- methodology papers
- data mining and literature surveys
- monographs, conspecti, atlases
- collections of papers, Festschrift volumes, conference proceedings
Extensive floristic overviews on a group in a country or larger region are welcome. Short floristic contributions may be considered if they are based on significant or unexpected discovery. Regular floristic contributions may eventually be published in special issues devoted to a region/country.
The following categories of papers will be considered:
- original research articles
- reviews - longer articles, offering a comprehensive overview, historical analysis or/and future perspectives of a topic
- monographs and collections of papers with no limit in size, published as 'special issues'
- data papers
- short communications
- letters and discussion papers
- book reviews
ISBN numbers will be assigned to large monographic papers (i.e., major revisions of taxa), monographs, collections of papers, Festschrift volumes, atlases, checklists, conspecti.
The journal is published in both, online and printed version. Since January 2012, each article is published online individually as soon as approved by the editors and bears its own publication date. The paper version is printed out once a whole issue is completed. This change in the publication model is following the amendments in the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants accepted at the International congress of botany, Melbourne, July 2011.

Title: The title should be in a sentence case (only scientific, geographic or person names should be with a first capital letter, i.e. Elater ferrugineus L., Germany, etc.), and should include an accurate, clear and concise description of the reported work, avoiding abbreviations.
Authors and Affiliations: Provide the complete names of all authors, and their addresses for correspondence, including e.g., institutional affiliation (e.g. university, institute), location (street, boulevard), city, state/province (if applicable), and country. One of the authors should be designated as the corresponding author. It is the corresponding author's responsibility to ensure that the author list, and the individual contributions to the study are accurate and complete. If the article has been submitted on behalf of a consortium, all consortium members and their affiliations should be listed after the Acknowledgements section.
Abstract and Keywords: Please have your abstract and keywords ready for input into the submission module.
Body Text: All papers should be in grammatically correct English. Authors of papers who are non-native English speakers are required to have their manuscripts checked by a native English speaker prior to submission. Use either British/Commonwealth or American English provided that the language is consistent within the paper. Each text must be written with precision, clarity, and economy, whenever appropriate in active voice and first person. Avoid the use of parenthetical comments and italics or bold for emphasis. PhytoKeys discourages the use of quotation marks except for direct quotations, words defined by the author, and words used in unusual contexts. Short quotations should be embedded in the text and enclosed in double quotation marks (''). Long quotations should be on a separate line, italicized, but without quotation marks. Single quotation marks are to be used only for a quotation that occurs within another quotation.
Spacing, Fonts, and Page Numbering: Single-space all material (text, quotations, figure legends, tables, references, etc.). Separate paragraphs with a blank line. Use a 12-point font (preferably Times New Roman or Arial).
Capitals: First capital letters should be used only in the beginning of a sentence, in proper names and in headings and subheadings, as well as to indicate tables, graphs and figure/s within the text. Software programmes should be written with capital letters (e.g., ANOVA, MANOVA, PAUP).
Italicization/Underlining: Scientific names of taxa of species and genera, long direct quotations and symbols for variables and constants (except for Greek letters), such as p, F, U, T, N, r, but not for SD (standard deviation), SE (standard error), DF (degrees of freedom) and NS (non significant) should be italicized. These symbols in illustrations and equations should be in italics to match the text. Italics should not be used for emphasis, and not in abbreviations such as e.g., i.e., et al., etc., cf. Underlining of any text is not acceptable.
Abbreviations: Abbreviations should be followed by ‘.' (full stop or period; for instance: i.e., e.g., cf., etc.). In general a full stop should not be added at the end of abbreviated words if the last letter of the abbreviation is the same as the last letter of the full word. For example, you should abbreviate „Eds”, „Dr”, „Mr” without full stop at the end. The abbreviation of circa can be either ca. or c. - this is an exception to the rule. All measures, for instance mm, cm, m, s, L, should be written without full stop.
On the use of dashes: (1) Hyphens are used to link words such as personal names, some prefixes and compound adjectives (the last of which vary depending on the style manual in use) (2) En-dash or en-rule (the length of an 'n') is used to link spans. In the context of PhytoKeys numerals, sizes, dates and page numbers (e.g., 1977–1981; figs 5–7; pp. 237–258), in addition to geographic or name associations (Murray–Darling River; a Federal–State agreement), should be separated with an en-dash. (3) Em-dash or em-rule (the length of an 'm') should be used rarely, its most common use use is for introducing a subordinate clause in the text, much as parentheses are used. In contrast to parentheses an em-dash can be used singly. En-dashes and em-dashes should not be spaced.
Footnotes: Avoid footnotes in the body text of the manuscript. It is always possible to incorporate the footnote into the main text by rewording the sentences, which greatly facilitates reading. Additionally, footnotes are not always handled well by the journal software, and their usage may cause your submission to fail. Footnotes are acceptable only below tables; instead of numbers, please use (in order): †, ‡, §, |, ¶, #, ††, ‡‡, §§, ||, ¶¶, ##.
Geographical coordinates: We strongly recommend that authors present geographical coordinates as taken from GPS or online gazetteer, or georeferencer (http://wwold.gbif.org/prog/digit/Georeferencing). Geographical coordinates must be listed in one of the following formats and should be consistent in format through the text:
Definition: The locality consists of a point represented by coordinate information in the form of latitude and longitude. Information may be in the form of
- Degrees, Minutes and Seconds (DMS),
- Degrees and Decimal Minutes (DDM), or
- Decimal Degrees (DD).
Records should also contain a hemisphere (E or W and N or S) or, with Decimal Degrees, minus (–) signs to indicate western and/or southern hemispheres.
Examples:
- Example 1: 36° 31' 21" N; 114° 09' 50" W (DMS)
- Example 2: 36° 31.46’N; 114° 09.84’W (DDM)
- Example 3: 36.5243° S; 114.1641° W (DD)
- Example 4: −36.5243; −114.1641 (DD using minus signs to indicate southern and western hemispheres)
We strongly recommend the use of Example 2 (the DDM format). The other three are also possible but will be recalculated to DDM during the process of online mapping from the HTML version of the paper.
The only restriction on format is in creating a KML (Keyhole Markup Language) file. KML latitudes and longitudes must be in the DD format shouwn above in Example 4.
Units: Use the International System of Units (SI) for measurements. Consult Standard Practice for Use of the International System of Units (ASTM Standard E−380−93) for guidance on unit conversions, style, and usage. When preparing text and figures, note in particular that (1) SI requires the use of the rterms mass or force rather that weight; (2) when one unit appears in a denominator, use the solidus (/); for two or more units in the denominator, use negative exponents; and (3) use capital L as an abbreviation for the volumetric measure of litre.
Statistics: Use leading zeroes with all numbers, including probability values (e.g., P < 0.001). For every significant F−statistic reported, provide two df values (numerator and denominator). Whenever possible, indicate the year and version of the statistical software used. Web (HTML) links: Authors are encouraged to include links to other Internet resources in their article. This is especially encouraged in the reference section. When inserting a reference to a web-page, please include the http:// portion of the web address.
Headings and subheadings: Main headings: The body text should be subdivided into different sections with appropriate headings. Where possible, the following standard headings should be used: Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusions, Acknowledgements, References. These headings need to be in bold font on a separate line and start with a first capital letter. Please do not number headings or subheadings.
- Introduction − The motivation or purpose of your research should appear in the Introduction, where you state the questions you sought to answer, and then provide some of the historical basis for those questions.
- Methods − Provide sufficient information to allow someone to repeat your work. A clear description of your experimental design, sampling procedures, and statistical procedures is especially important in papers describing field studies, simulations, or experiments. If you list a product (e.g., animal food, analytical device), supply the name and location of the manufacturer. Give the model number for equipment used. Supply complete citations, including author (or editor), title, year, publisher, and version number, for computer software mentioned in your article.
- Results − Results should be stated concisely and without interpretation.
- Discussion − Focus on the rigorously supported aspects of your study. Carefully differentiate the results of your study from data obtained from other sources. Interpret your results, relate them to the results of previous research, and discuss the implications of your results or interpretations. Point out results that do not support speculations or the findings of previous research, or that are counter-intuitive. You may choose to include a Speculation subsection in which you pursue new ideas suggested by your research, compare and contrast your research with findings from other systems or other disciplines, pose new questions that are suggested by the results of your study, and suggest ways of answering these new questions.
- Conclusion −This should state clearly the main conclusions of the research and give a clear explanation of their importance and relevance. Summary illustrations may be included.
- References − The list of References should be included after the final section of the main article body. A blank line should be inserted between single-spaced entries in the list. Authors are requested to include links to online sources of articles, whenever possible!
Where possible, the standard headings should be used in the order given above. Additional headings and modifications are permissible.
Subordinate headings: Subordinate headings (e.g. Field study and Simulation model or Counts, Measurements and Molecular analysis), should be left-justified, italicized, and in a regular sentence case. All subordinate headings should be on a separate line.

|
This journal has well-defined policies for English language editing. Involving mandatory outsourced language editing services would considerably increase the price of the open access fees charged, which would become an additional obstacle for persons and institutions to publish in the journal. Therefore we rely both on the conscience of our authors to provide stylistically written texts and our editors and reviewers to filter out badly written manuscripts.
Authors are required to have their manuscripts edited by a native English speaker BEFORE submission. Authors have to confirm by checking a tick box in the submission process that they have followed the above requirement:
[ ] The text is checked by a native English speaker, duly acknowledged in the manuscript. I am aware that non-edited manuscripts could be rejected prior to peer-review.
The submission process includes an option to request a professional linguistic and copy editing at a price of EURO 10 per 1800 characters: [ ] The text has not been checked by a native speaker and I request thorough editing prior to peer review at a price. I agree to cover the costs even if my manuscript is not accepted for publication.
The authors are NOT obliged to use our linguistic services, but they must ensure that their manuscripts have been checked by a native speaker.

Online publishing allows an author to provide data sets, tables, video files, or other information as supplementary information, greatly increasing the impact of the submission. Uploading of such files is possible in Step 4 of the submission process.
The maximum file size for each Supplementary File is 20 MB.
The Supplementary Files will not be displayed in the printed version of the article, but will exist as linkable supplementary downloadable files in the online version.
While submitting a supplementary file the following information should be completed:
- File name
- File format (including name and a URL of an appropriate viewer if format is unusual)
- Title of data
- Description of data
All supplementary files should be referenced explicitly by file name within the body of the article, e.g. 'See supplementary file 1: Movie 1" for the original data used to perform this analysis.
Ideally, the supplementary files should not be platform-specific, and should be viewable using free or widely available tools. Suitable file formats are:
For supplementary documentation:
For animations:
For movies:
- MOV (QuickTime)
- MPG (MPEG)
For datasets:
- XLS (Excel spreadsheet)
- CSV (Comma separated values)
- ODS (OpenOffice spreadsheets)
As for images, file names should be given in the standard file extensions. This is especially important for Macintosh users, since the Mac OS does not enforce the use of standard file extensions. Please also make sure that each additional file is a single table, figure or movie (please do not upload linked worksheets or PDF files that are composed of mor than one item).

PhytoKeys will publish papers that strictly adhere the rules of the last edition of International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi and plants (ICN). To assure this, authors are advised to follow the recommendations below.
Descriptions of new taxa (species and below) should include the following: 1) a short Latin or English diagnosis followed by a full description in English, 2) an illustration (line drawing or photograph) clearly showing the diagnostic characters, 2) a comparison of the new taxon with related taxa with a diagnostic key to identification, if appropriate, 3) a discussion of the distinctive morphological characteristics, ecology, geography, and/or reproductive biology, and 4) a statement on preliminary [at least] conservation status of the taxon being described.
New combinations take the form: New combination (Basionym author(s)) Author(s). Basionym: citation. Other earlier combinations based on the same basionym. Type of the basionym.
Designations of nomenclatural novelties (e.g., sp.nov., comb.nov., etc.) should be in bold and expilicitly mentioned in the abstract and with the description.
Lectotype designations are included together with an indication of where they were designated, the year, and the author as in the Solanum nitidum example below. This reference should be listed in the References. If the author of the paper submitted is making the lectotypification, the phrase “designated here” is used (in compliance with the ICN).
For monographic work in which synonymy appears, each synonym should appear on a new line with its type on a separate line. Synonyms are presented in date order (oldest first) and homotypic synonyms are treated as separate entries. Please follow the format below:
Solanum nitidum Ruiz & Pav., Fl. Peruv. 2: 33, tab. 163. 1799.
Fig. 67
Type: Peru. Junín: Tarma, May, June, H. Ruiz & J. Pavón s.n. (lectotype, designated by Knapp 2008c, pg. 320: MA [MA-747147]; isolectotypes: F [F-844722, frag.], G, MA [MA-747146, F neg. 29726]), P [P00366843, P00366844]).

Solanum gnaphaloides Pers., Syn. 1: 223. 1805, nom. nov. superfl.
Type: Based on Solanum calygnaphalum Ruiz & Pav.
Witheringia angustifolia Dunal, Solan. Syn. 2. 1816.
Type: Ecuador. Cotopaxi: Mt. Cotopaxi, A. Humboldt & A. Bonpland 3069 (holotype: P-Bonpl. [P00136351, Morton neg. 8171]).
Solanum rhamnoides Dunal, in DC., Prodr. 13(1): 100. 1852.
Type: Bolivia. Palea [Palca?], A. D’Orbigny 293 (holotype: P [P00507312]; isotype: MO n.v.).

Type: Bolivia. La Paz: La Paz, Oct 1898, Prinzessin Therese von Bayern s.n. (holotype: M [M0166048, F neg. 6547]).
Use Authors of Plant Names (Brummitt and Powell 1992, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew) for authors of botanical names. Authors should be given the first time a name is mentioned, or alternately in a table where all relevant names are listed (e.g., table of voucher specimens).
References cited only as part of nomenclatural matter and not elsewhere are not included in literature cited; use TL-2 for abbreviations.
Use Index Herbariorum acronyms for designations of herbaria.
If specimens are cited, use the following formats:
TYPE: COLOMBIA. Chocó: Municipio Tadó, 10 km de la carretera Tadó-Pereira, 40 m alt., 6 Feb 1989, W.J. Kress & B.E. Echeverry 89-2589 (holotype: US!; isotype: COL!).
Specimens Examined. COSTA RICA. Cartago: Turrialba, 1500 m, 4 May 1958, A. Brenes 13456 (CR);
Panama. Bocas del Toro: Oleoducto road to Chiriquí Grande, 1500 m, 2 Aug 1974, B. Hammel 13712 (MO, SEL); Chiriquí: Cerro Pando, 2400 m, 23 Aug 1987, S. Knapp 6543 (BM, MO, US); Veraguas: Santa Fé, Pacific slope, 1300-1350 m, 5 Jul 1975, T.B. Croat 49061 (A, GH, MO);
Author initials must be presented with type citations, but are optional in the specimens examined section. Either use the exclamation mark (!) to indicate a type specimen has been seen or indicate duplicates that have not been seen by the abbreviation n.v. (non visi).
Countries in the Specimens Examined section can be listed alphabetically or in geographical order; the method used should be explained in the Materials and Methods section.
If the paper presents original data, associated herbarium vouchers are cited. [Vouchers for seed and/or other collections should be included where pertinent. Dependent on the paper, reference to the original wild source may be required.] Vouchers are also cited from common names and uses taken from specimen labels, except if the information is taken from the literature in which case, a literature citation is given.
Herbarium vouchers state the collector and number, herbarium in which the voucher is located, and a clear annotation that the material represents the voucher for the study in question.
If the specimens seen for the study are numerous, selected specimens should be cited and the section entitled Selected Specimens Examined. In this case, all specimens seen for the study should be included in an Index to Numbered Collections (or Exsiccatae) section that is an Appendix to the main paper. Un-numbered specimens can be listed here, but they are of limited use to curators wanting to identify duplicates (a principal use of exsiccatae lists).
The Index to Numbered Collections should be arranged in alphabetical order by collector in the following format:
Ariza Espinar, L. 2798 (salicifolium); 2857 (angustifidum).
Armitage, F.B. 154/59 (seaforthianum).
Armstrong, E. 931, 1076, 1152 (umbelliferum).
Arnett, M. 8088 (umbelliferum).
Arockiasamy, D.I. 10038 (seaforthianum).
Aronson, J. 541 (macbridei); 860 (uncinellum).
Arp, G.K. 4532 (aligerum).
Arriaga C, R. 389 (aligerum).
Arsène, G. 2330, 2669, 2894, 5970 (dulcamaroides); 6424 (triquetrum); 9669 (dulcamaroides); 10014 (laxum).
Nucleic acid or protein sequences corresponding to equal or greater than 50 nucleotides are entered into an appropriate data bank, e.g., GenBank/EMBL. The accession numbers are provided before publication. Long sequences (exceeding two pages) will not be routinely published in text form, however they could be published as supplementary file.

Recording of new names with IPNI Download as PDF
|
|
Submission and recording of all new names of vascular plants with the International Plant Names Index (IPNI) and listing the IPNI identifiers (Life Science Identifiers, or LSIDs) in the respective papers where the new names are published is a mandatory policy of PhytoKeys. The submission to IPNI is provided by the Editorial Office of PhytoKeys simultaneously with the publication process. The IPNI LSIDs can be linked directly from the PhytoKeys pages, or resolved and the associated information viewed through any standard web browser by appending the LSID contained in this publication to the prefix http://ipni.org/.
Listing of IPNI LSIDs in the publication ensures two-sided reference link between the original publication of the new name and IPNI database, as well as to all additional indexers using IPNI data, e.g., GBIF.
In addition, the high-resolution, full-color printed version of PhytoKeys, which is identical to the published PDF, is deposited in the Library of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, UK, an IPNI partner institution, the Smithsonian Institution and Natural History Museum London.
