The editors reserve the right to conduct small changes in text and layout to adopt the standards of the journal for the submitted contribution. Authors should be very careful with these taxonomic matters and always should have checked the original descriptions of the taxa they use, or at least refer to a recent critical taxonomic revision of the group. Zoological nomenclature and taxonomic results must be in agreement with current ICZN rules. This also includes the deposition of holotype specimens in well-known public museums. Authors should consider the deposition of holotypes, paratypes and other voucher material in the collections of Senckenberg.
