Aims & Scope

Journal of Mammalian Evolution is a multidisciplinary forum devoted to studies on the comparative morphology, molecular biology, paleobiology, genetics, developmental and reproductive biology, biogeography, systematics, ethology and ecology, and population dynamics of mammals and the ways that these diverse data can be analyzed for the reconstruction of mammalian evolution. The journal publishes high-quality peer-reviewed original articles and reviews derived from both laboratory and field studies. The journal serves as an international forum to facilitate communication among researchers in the multiple fields that contribute to our understanding of mammalian evolutionary biology. Manuscripts submitted to the journal must have an evolutionary perspective and focus on mammals and their kin (synapsids).
