Willdenowia

Aims & Scope

Willdenowia is an international peer-reviewed journal publishing original research articles in English from the entire fields of plant, algal and fungal systematics, covering the evolution, taxonomy and nomenclature of these organisms as well as related fields such as floristics and plant geography.

Articles on phylogeny and molecular systematics are especially welcome, as are review articles.

Descriptions of new taxa may be considered, but only if supported by robust evidence.

Narrowly regional studies of widespread taxa, routine typifications, checklists and new floristic records are generally not considered (excluding contributions to the Euro+Med-Checklist Notulae).

Authors are encouraged to deposit duplicates of their material, especially nomenclatural types, in the Berlin herbarium (B).
