Referees for 2011–2015, vols 1–5

The success and scientific credibility of this journal depends in large measure on the pool of referees who contribute their time, experience and judgement to the peer-review process. They provide this service voluntarily, anonymously and for no obvious reward other than to see that the journal publishes material of a high standard. In addition to the editors, more than 100 people were kind enough to review the papers published in the first five volumes of New Journal of Botany, 2011–2015. It is with great pleasure therefore that, on behalf of the Botanical Society of Britain & Ireland and the New Journal of Botany Editorial Board, I offer grateful thanks to the people listed below.
