NOTES FOR CONTRIBUTORS TO THE JNR
We publish peer-reviewed scientific articles concerning
all aspects of nannoplankton research, and especiallyencourage papers and notes on new taxa and new techniques. We aim to publish articles within 6–12 months ofsubmission. You will be provided with a free PDF of yourarticle (reprints are not available). Published articles also
appear in digital form on the INA website: http://ina.­
tmsoc.org/JNR/JNRcontents.htm. All articles should
be submitted to the Editor-in-Chief.
The JNR is valid for description of new taxa, as long as
these are in accordance with the rules of the current International Code of Nomenclature (ICN) for algae, fungiand plants. Articles should be clearly and conciselywritten in English, with an informative title. The article
should contain a short abstract, giving a comprehensive
overview of the article, and up to 10 keywords.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR ARTICLESUBMISSIONS
Initial submission procedures
Submit manuscripts electronically to the Editor-in-Chiefin a format that can be annotated by the reviewers, ideallya Word file of the text and a PDF file containing figures/plates/tables. The file names should comprise your surname and date of submission. Use 12-point font and double line-spacing, and number the lines and pages.
The reviewers and Editor-in-Chief will correct minor
problems with the English and grammar of non-native
speakers, but it is suggested that, if necessary, non-native
speakers have their manuscripts checked by a confident
English-speaker before submission, to avoid problems
with ambiguity in the text.
If the manuscript is accepted for review you will receive a link to your submission folder. Please save thislink for future access, as this folder will allow you to view
your submission and reviews, upload revisions and viewproofs of your article.
Taxonomy: Taxonomic descriptions should follow
the latest JNR format. Taxonomic lists are not accepted;
any taxonomic notes or discussions should be included
in a systematics section in the paper. Do refer readers toan up-to-date taxonomic reference, such as Bown (1998)
or Nannotax3. Note that Nannotax3 is the official taxonomic resource of the INA and can be accessed at http://ina.­tmsoc.org/Nannotax3/index/html.
References: References should be in alphabeticalorder by author, then year, and must follow the JNR style(as seen in the most recent issues) using full references,
not abbreviations. All (but only) references used in thetext must appear in the reference list. You do not need tocite taxon author references. Note that references to Nannotax3 require a date, as this site changes regularly to accommodate the most recent developments in taxonomy.
See http://tmsoc.org/Nannotax3/ntax-citation.html for
more information and how to reference individual taxa.
Final submission procedure
Files should be uploaded directly into your submission
folder. Ensure your file names contain your surname, table/figure/plate number and submission date.
Text: Remove page and line numbers, page breaks,columns, footnotes and headers. Do not embed figures ortables into the text. Do italicize species names and et al.
Remember to thank your reviewers in the acknowledgements - the review process is essential to furthering ourscience, and it commonly takes a day of unpaid time toreview a manuscript thoroughly.
Figures: Submit as individual TIFF, JPEG, PDF or,
if possible, CorelDraw files (500dpi minimum). Figures
may be submitted in color for the digital publication, but
ensure these figures are clear when printed in black andwhite. Use of color for printed articles can be discussedwith the Editor-in-Chief. Avoid using unusual or multiple
fonts (Verdana, Calibri and Helvetica are recommended).
Captions must be succinct. Figures may be reduced insize in the JNR, so check that font sizes are adequate.
Tables: (Including range-charts) should be submitted
in Excel. The JNR reserves the right to provide large biostratigraphic charts as appendices in PDF format only.
Note that all distribution charts should contain all information, not selected taxa.
Plates: Submit as individual TIFF, JPEG, PDF or, if
possible, CorelDraw files (500dpi minimum). A scale-bar
must be provided on each plate. Taxon names and sample
numbers should appear on the plate, below each image,in 8-point sans-serif font. Figure numbers (not letters)
should appear in one comer of each image. Other necessary information can also be added to the plate.
JNR and Nannotax3
As general policy, relevant content published in the JNR
will also be used on the Nannotax3 website with full referencing. In particular, new taxa and images published inthe JNR will routinely be incorporated into the Nannotax3
website. This means your contribution will be used as
widely as possible. If you do not wish for your images tobe used on the website, please explain this to the Editor-­
in-Chief when making your final submission.
