General
Endangered Species Research (ESR) has grown dynamically and is now recognised as a central journal in this vital field. With its Editorial Board of acknowledged experts from around the world, it has already attracted papers on a wide range of subjects from over 40 countries. It publishes Research articles, Reviews, Invited Reviews and Notes, as well as Comments/Reply Comments, Theme Sections and As I See It.
ESR grants authors unusually fast publication of accepted manuscripts and provides instant worldwide visibility. The latest SCImago "Cites per Doc - 2 yr" (impact index) factor is 2.259.
History
ESR was founded in 2004 by Professor Otto Kinne as a major stage for publications on the ecology of endangered life, its requirements for survival, and its protection.
Aim
ESR aims at providing the knowledge needed for practising human stewardship. Human stewardship is one of the noblest duties of humanity and one of the greatest challenges to science. And it is a primary prerequisite for long-term survival of our species, Homo sapiens.
Effective stewardship can be achieved only if many people become actively involved, including people outside the scientific community. While insisting on scientific principles, ESR will help to motivate and inform individuals and groups who are prepared to participate in supporting endangered life.
Scope
ESR is international and interdisciplinary. It covers all endangered forms of life on Earth, the threats faced by species and their habitats and the necessary steps that must be undertaken to ensure their conservation. ESR publishes high quality contributions reporting research on all species (and habitats) of conservation concern, whether they be classified as Near Threatened or Threatened (Endangered or Vulnerable) by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN) or highlighted as part of national or regional conservation strategies. Submissions on all aspects of conservation science are welcome.
We especially invite contributions that synthesise key areas. Suggestions for Theme Sections on emerging topics of importance are invited. All submitted manuscripts will be subject to a thorough review process involving at least three reviewers. Current acceptance rates are about 50%.
Please submit manuscripts through the online management system or via e-mail to the Editor-in-Chief via the ESR Managing Editor (for details consult GUIDELINES FOR AUTHORS).
Criticism and advice are invited (address to the Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Brendan J. Godley B.J.Godley(at)exeter.ac.uk).
Production schedule
AEI volumes are built online, with articles appearing as soon as editorial modifications are approved by the authors. Production time (final acceptance to online publication) is 3-4 weeks.
AEI encourages and facilitates the incorporation of essential supplementary material –– such as movies or oversize tables, figures or mathematics –– to assist authors in more effectively transmitting their research results.
High quality color illustrations are welcome and will be published without charge.
Conflicts of interest
Authors, Reviewers and Editors must disclose relationships (e.g. financial, economic, institutional) that may affect the integrity of the scientific process.
Open Access
ESR is published entirely Open Access using the Creative Commons by Attribution (CC-BY) Licence. The fees are:
Manuscripts submitted on or after 1 April 2015: €1050 for articles of 1–8 published pages*, €1350 for 9–14 pages, €1550 for >14 pages
Manuscripts submitted before 1 April 2015: €800 for articles of 1–8 published pages*, €1100 for 9–14 pages, and €1300 for >14 pages.
Fee waiver: Authors of studies originating from countries where limited funds are available for Open Access fees can request to have the OA fee reduced or waived. Applications will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and will require the provision to Inter-Research of specific funding and other resourcing information related to the study. In general a study must have been funded to at least 50% by a country eligible for the Research4Life program or classified by the World Bank as low or lower-middle income. Please apply to acceptance(at)int-res.com before submitting your manuscript. Late applications (at any time during review or production) may also be considered.
Only articles clearly marked with "CC BY" in the top right corner of the front page are published with the Creative Commons by Attribution Licence. The CC-BY option was not available for Inter-Research journals before 1 April 2013. Articles marked "Open Access" or "Free Access" but not marked "CC BY" are made freely accessible to all users at the time of publication but are subject to standard copyright law regarding reproduction and distribution.
*As a rough guide, 1 published page = 2 to 3 manuscript pages
Access information
ESR is fully Open Access (author-pays model).
All ESR articles are available online and are freely accessible to all users. As from Volume 29 (2015/16), the print version has been discontinued. Thus subscriptions are no longer available.
Back print issues are available for substantially reduced prices; for details write to the publisher.
Instructions to Authors
The Editors consider for publication:
- Research Articles (target: ~6000 words)
- Reviews, state-of-the-art evaluations of important current research areas
- Notes, brief reports of important new information deserving priority publication (target: <3000 words)

MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION
Submission of a manuscript to ESR implies
(1) originality of the manuscript (i.e. the material has not been published before), correct citation of published and unpublished works, and proper attribution where needed. Inter-Research may check submissions using anti-plagiarism software
(2) exclusive submission to ESR (i.e. it is not simultaneously submitted to any other publication outlet)
(3) approval by all immediately involved (e.g. authors, institutional authorities)
(4) correct listing of authors (i.e. all authors agree to be listed and have contributed to the research reported)
(5) compliance with institutional, national and international ethics guidelines concerning the use of animals in research and/or the sampling of endangered species
(6) agreement with Inter-Research terms of publication, including agreement with issuing the article under the Creative Commons by Attribution (CC-BY) Licence and agreement to pay the Open Access fee.
Make submissions via the 'Author gateway'. In case of any problem, the files may alternatively be emailed directly to the ESR Editorial Office. Submit 2 files:
1. Cover letter including contact information for at least 3 potential reviewers and any relevant history of the manuscript (e.g. if the submission has previously been rejected by any journal)
2. Manuscript as single file including figures and tables
MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION
