Taxonomy

Australian Journal of Taxonomy is an online platform for the rapid publication of new Australian taxa

The Australian Journal of Taxonomy welcomes papers describing new Australian taxa of plants, animals, fungi and other organisms, and dealing with associated nomenclatural acts. It is ideal for single-taxon or miscellany papers, and for small taxonomic revisions.
