Information
All manuscripts submitted for the Brazil ISA Congress Proceedings (to be published in volume 36, issue #2 -- Summer 2008), must be ELECTRONICALLY submitted to:
Paula Cushing,
Managing Editor of the JoA
E-mail: Paula.Cushing@dmns.org
(alternate address: PECushing@juno.com)
- Submissions must be clearly designated by the authors as Congress submissions. Please indicate this in the subject line (e.g., ISA Congress Article Submission) and on the title page of the MS
- Submissions must be received by Paula no later than December 15, 2007.
Manuscripts submitted after the December 15th deadline will be considered for later issues of the Journal. We cannot guarantee that late submissions will be published in the Congress Proceedings or will even be considered for the Congress Proceedings.
- Congress manuscripts should be no more than 15 pages in length (double spaced) not including figures and tables. If manuscripts are longer than 15 pages, authors must first contact the Managing Editor. If authors wish to submit a monograph sized manuscript, they must first contact the Managing Editor prior to submission.
- All authors must strictly adhere to all format and other guidelines explained in the JoA Instructions to Authors. Any congress manuscript that does not adhere to these Instructions to Authors will be returned to the author and will not be processed until the manuscript adheres to all JoA policies and formatting guidelines.
- Authors for whom English is not their first language must have a native English speaker read, edit, and help revise the manuscript prior to submission. If the author does not know a native English speaker who can assist with this task, the author must contact Paula Cushing prior to submission and she will arrange for assistance with this task.
- All congress manuscripts will be reviewed in the same manner and with the same requirements for scientific quality and content as are any submissions to the Journal of Arachnology.
