Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Arthropod Systematics and Phylogeny publishes research on the systematics and evolutionary history of arthropods. The journal focuses on phylogenetic analyses, often integrating morphological and molecular data, to understand species relationships, revise taxonomic groups, and describe new species across various arthropod orders. Studies frequently address biogeography, ancestral character state reconstruction, and the evolution of morphological traits, contributing to the classification and understanding of arthropod diversity.
