About the journal
Archives of Natural History

Archives of natural history (formerly the Journal of the Society for the Bibliography of Natural History) publishes peer-reviewed papers on the history and bibliography of natural history in its broadest sense, and in all periods and all cultures. This is taken to include botany, general biology, geology, palaeontology and zoology, the lives of naturalists, their publications, correspondence and collections, and the institutions and societies to which they belong. Bibliographical papers concerned with the study of rare books, manuscripts and illustrative material, and analytical and enumerative bibliographies are also published.

Archives of natural history is published by Edinburgh University Press on behalf of the Society for the History of Natural History.

Submission guidelines are summarised below. Full submission instructions are available on the Society for the History of Natural History website at
http://www.shnh.org.uk/publications/archives-of-natural-history.html. Please click here to download the journal's style sheet.

Papers are considered on the understanding that they present the results of original research and that their contents have not appeared, or will not appear, elsewhere in substantially the same or abbreviated form, whether in English or in translation. Papers which are primarily concerned with nomenclature or systemic revisions cannot be considered.

Authors should study the submissions instructions carefully and present their papers in the exact style required by Archives of natural history. Papers not conforming to the journal’s style may be returned to authors for amendment before consideration for possible publication.

Papers are submitted for scrutiny to one or more referees and are evaluated, with these reports, by the editors. Authors can expect a report from the editor on the suitability of their submission, with a summary of pertinent comments from referees, and amendments may be requested or required. The Honorary Editor may reject a paper without review when it is deemed inappropriate for the journal or of inadequate quality. No paper is published without the formal, written acceptance of the Honorary Editor.

Copyright of papers and short notes published in Archives of natural history must be assigned to the Society for the History of Natural History. A Copyright (Intellectual Property Rights) Assignment Form will be supplied by the Honorary Editor. Alternatively, authors who are unable by reason of their employment to assign these rights will be required to grant a licence to publish.

Papers should be as concise as possible. Other matters being equal, preference will be given to papers not exceeding 10,000 words (including notes and references). Short notes should contain fewer than 1,500 words.
