2020-02-11

Call for contributions to the new EDGG-edited Special Feature in Hacquetia

6th EDGG Special Feature in Hacquetia 2021: Fauna, flora, vegetation and conservation of Palaearctic natural and semi-natural grasslands

This is the second call for the submission of manuscripts for the EDGG-edited Special Feature in Hacquetia 2021. We welcome manuscripts about natural and semi-natural grasslands, on all taxa and from any region in the Palaearctic realm (Europe; West, Central and North Asia; North Africa).

 

Hacquetia (http://www.degruyter.com/view/j/hacq) is the international journal of the Biological Branch of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences. It appears in two issues per year, both in print and online. Through offering longer articles, open access publication and free reproduction of colour figures, it is a very attractive publication venue. Currently it is indexed in the Scopus and BIOSIS literature databases, and it is likely to be included in the Web of Science in the near future (aided by our very international and high-quality Special Issues and your citations of these).

 

This Special Issue will be the 6th EDGG-edited Special Issue in Hacquetia, following the five successful issues in 2014/1, 2015/1, 2016/2, 2018/1 and 2019/2. This Special Issue will appear as the first issue of 2021, to be published approximately in January 2021, with about 150–250 pages reserved for our articles. It will also contain a report on the EDGG activities of the previous year.

 

Procedure and deadlines: The deadline for full-text submission is 15 March 2020 and manuscripts will undergo the normal peer-review process. Manuscripts submitted before the deadline have higher chance for inclusion in the 2021/1 issue, but well prepared papers submitted after the deadline might also have a chance for being included. Submissions that require extensive revision will be available online when ready (ahead of print).

 

If you are interested in contributing a manuscript for this comprehensive Special Issue, then please contact the Chair of the editorial team (see below) and submit your manuscript to her. Author guidelines can be found at the journal homepage: http://www.degruyter.com/view/j/hacq.
