New Journal of Botany

Formerly Watsonia

Volume 2 (2012), 2 issues per year

Print ISSN: 2042-3489
Online ISSN: 2042-3497

New Journal of Botany aims to become the chief forum for communicating the results of botanical studies relating to the vascular plants and charophytes of northern and western Europe. The Botanical Society of the British Isles (BSBI) wants this to be a first-rate, international, scientific journal, and the editorial board is committed to a rapid turnaround of submitted manuscripts. The new journal will include not only peer-reviewed papers and short notes, but also reviews and opinion articles.

The scientific scope is broad and includes: phytogeography, floristics, distribution and recording, taxonomy, systematics and evolution, population and conservation biology, including ecological genetics, ecology (especially autecological, physiological and phenological studies), plant/animal interactions, including plant biochemistry where this relates to such. Submissions are also welcomed on the history of botany in the British Isles, especially its development in a European context, as well as topics of a more general botanical nature.
