Did you know we are one of two journals produced by the Natural History Museum London. We champion the importance of collections-based systematics and our papers cover fossil species from across the tree of life, substantially contributing to the systematics of extinct taxa. So, why publish with us?

Salps, a clear, gelatinous ocean animal, use jet propulsion to glide through the water without leaving insight into how they move.
With harmless green dye, former MIT-WHOI Joint Program graduate student Kelly Sutherland was able to study salp locomotion at the Liquid Jungle Lab in Panama.
