Myrmecological News

Taxonomic manuscripts with isolated species descriptions are generally discouraged, especially for genera with large numbers of undescribed species; it lies at the discretion of the editorial team whether such manuscripts are considered. Papers on new distribution records will be considered if the new records are sufficiently important or unexpected from a biogeographical perspective. Such papers could, for example, discuss relevant biological/ecological data and/or biogeographical implications such as analysis by species-distribution modelling. In detail, research areas covered by Myrmecological News include: behaviour; biogeography and faunistics; biological-pest control; chemical ecology; climate-change biology; cognition and learning; comparative and functional morphology; community ecology; conservation biology and bioindication; cytogenetics; ecology and evolution of (endo)symbioses; ecosystem (dis)services; foraging strategies; fossils; fragmentation ecology; genomics; histology; immune research; (integrative) taxonomy; interspecific hybridisation; invasion biology; life-history research; methodology in community quantification; national checklists; neurobiology; niche ecology; orientation and navigation; phenology; phylogeny and phylogeography; population genetics; sensory physiology; social evolution; social parasitism; sociogenomics; stable isotopes; tools for routine identification.
