THE JOURNAL OF ECOLOGY 
EDITED FOR THE BRITISH ECOLOGICAL SOCIETY 
By A. G. TANSLEY 
This Journal, which was founded in 1913 as the organ of the British Ecological 
Society, was the first periodical devoted exclusively to ecology. It has recently been 
followed by the American Ecology. 
The Journal of Ecology contains original contributions dealing with ecology, both 
of animals and plants, and with vegetation: also reviews and notices of publications 
on the same subjects; and reports of the meetings and work of the British Ecological 
Society. 
Form, Appearance and Price. Size 10 in. x 7J in. Under existing conditions 
the issues cannot be exactly fixed, but not less than two appear during the year, 
containing in all 200-240 pages. The aim is to publish four quarterly issues of not 
less than 64 pages each. The subscription price is £1 per annum, single numbers 
according to size, and at a higher rate. 
Contributions are invited, especially when they bear on general ecological 
problems, or contain new descriptions of methods of research, from workers all over 
the world. They should be written in English, French or German. The metric system 
of weights and measures should be used, and citations should be in the form shown 
in the pages of the Journal. 
Illustrations for the text should be drawn and arranged for direct reproduction.
