Zootaxa (Zootaxa)

Zootaxa is a leading international peer-reviewed journal specializing in animal taxonomy and systematics. Established in 2001, it has become one of the most prominent platforms for the rapid publication of research on biodiversity, particularly the description of new species. The journal is widely recognized for its high publication volume and efficiency, making it a preferred outlet for taxonomists worldwide. The scope of Zootaxa covers all aspects of zoological systematics, including species descriptions, revisions of taxonomic groups, phylogenetic analyses, and biogeographic studies. It includes research on a broad range of animal taxa such as insects, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, as well as marine and microscopic organisms. A distinctive feature of Zootaxa is its fast-track publication model, which allows for the timely dissemination of taxonomic discoveries. The journal follows rigorous peer-review standards while maintaining a rapid editorial process. It also plays a crucial role in documenting global biodiversity, particularly at a time when species are being discovered and lost at unprecedented rates.
