The Journal of Micropalaeontology
The
Journal of Micropalaeontology is well-established as an international
publication with a circulation approaching 900 copies covering all
aspects of microfossils and their application both in applied studies
and basic research. The scope of the journal has always been broad,
especially to show the application of microfossils to solving
geological problems, but with an emphasis on taxonomy. The principal
fields of interest are: biostratigraphy; evolution; palaeobiology;
palaeoenvironments; reviews; taxonomic studies.The emphasis will be on
applications. Our aim is to attract high-quality papers that will prove
to be influential in the development of our science.

Instructions for authors
The
Geological Society Publishing House, who publish the Journal of
Micropalaeontology on behalf of TMS, are presently constructing an electronic
manuscript submission and management system. Until the system is launched, authors can email
submissions in electronic form to the Production Editor. Text, tables and figure captions should
be submitted as Word files, with figures and plates as either PDFS or
low-resolution native files. If your paper is accepted then the final
submission will be expected to include the high-resolution native files
for figures and plates (e.g. EPS or TIF files).
Further information on publishing in the journal is available at the Geological Society.
Back Issues
Copies of back issues can be obtained from The Micropalaeontological Society at the cost of £1 per issue. Contact Haydon Bailey for details.
