Acta Arachnologica (AA)

Acta Arachnologica is a peer-reviewed scientific journal dedicated to the study of arachnids, particularly spiders, scorpions, and related species. Established in 1936, it is published by the Arachnological Society of Japan and is one of the oldest specialized journals in arachnology. The journal serves as an important platform for researchers worldwide to publish original research articles, taxonomic revisions, ecological studies, behavioral analyses, and biodiversity surveys related to arachnid species. It plays a key role in documenting spider diversity, especially in the Asian and Pacific regions, while also contributing to global arachnological knowledge. Acta Arachnologica publishes biannually and includes detailed morphological descriptions, species identification studies, and evolutionary research. The journal is particularly known for taxonomic papers describing new species and genera of spiders. It also includes ecological studies focusing on habitat distribution, predator-prey interactions, and conservation issues affecting arachnid populations. Indexed in selected biological databases, the journal supports international collaboration among arachnologists and entomologists. Over time, Acta Arachnologica has become a respected source of scientific information in invertebrate zoology, contributing significantly to the understanding of arachnid diversity and evolution. Its long publication history makes it an important archival resource in systematic zoology.
