The Journal of Herpetology accepts manuscripts on all aspects on the biology of amphibians and reptiles including their behavior| conservation| ecology| morphology| physiology| and systematics| as well as herpetological education. We encourage authors to submit manuscripts that are data-driven and rigorous tests of hypotheses| or provide thorough descriptions of novel taxa (living or fossil). Topics may address theoretical issues in a thoughtful| quantitative way. Reviews and policy papers that provide new insight on the herpetological sciences are also welcome| but they must be more than simple literature reviews. These papers must have a central focus that propose a new argument for understanding a concept or a new approach for answering a question or solving a problem. Focus sections that combine papers on related topics are normally determined by the Editors. Publication in the Long-Term Perspectives section is by invitation only. Papers on captive breeding| new techniques or sampling methods| anecdotal or isolated natural history observations| geographic range extensions| and essays should be submitted to our sister journal| Herpetological Review.
