The Journal publishes manuscripts on the whole spectrum of lower Eukaryote cells including protozoans, lower algae and lower fungi.
Protistology publishes original papers (experimental and theoretical contributions),
full-size reviews, short topical reviews (which are supposed to be somewhat "provocative" for setting up new hypotheses), rapid short communications,
book reviews, symposia materials, historical materials, obituary notices on famous scientists, letters to the Editor, comments on and replies to published
papers. Chronicles will present information about past and future scientific meetings, conferences, etc.
The peculiarities of the Journal
♦ reviews, overviews and theoretical manuscripts on systematics, phylogeny,
evolution and ecology of protists are favourably accepted
♦ the manuscripts on multicellular organisms concerning their phylogenetic and taxonomic
relationships with protists are also accepted
♦ the size of manuscripts is usually not limited
All articles published by Protistology are permanently accessible online immediately upon publication, without subscription charges
or registration barriers.
Protistology is a non-profit professional journal founded by protistologists for protistologists. We maintain a small team of professionals
preparing journal issues and providing open-access articles free of charge to all our readers. Thus, it is not surprising that in the 21st century,
we still use E-mail to receive manuscripts and submit PDF files for review instead of employing an online editorial system and paying software owners.
We share the opinion that high-quality scientific information must be free and available to everyone, irrespective of one’s income, financial status,
affiliation, country of living or origin, or any other issue. As a result, Protistology is the only specialized peer-reviewed free of charge open
access protistological journal, which is indexed in Scopus and other major publication databases.
