中国高校科技期刊研究会第9次会员代表大会在北京召开，中宣部出版局副局长张怀海、教育部科学技术与信息化司一级巡视员张国辉等领导出席会议并发表..
英文简介：The Journal of Herpetology accepts manuscripts on all aspects on the biology of amphibians and reptiles including their behavior, conservation, ecology, morphology, physiology, and systematics, as well as herpetological education. We encourage authors to submit manuscripts that are data-driven and rigorous tests of hypotheses, or provide thorough descriptions of novel taxa (living or fossil). Topics may address theoretical issues in a thoughtful, quantitative way. Reviews and policy papers that provide new insight on the herpetological sciences are also welcome, but they must be more than simple literature reviews. These papers must have a central focus that propose a new argument for understanding a concept or a new approach for answering a question or solving a problem. Focus sections that combine papers on related topics are normally determined by the Editors. Publication in the Long-Term Perspectives section is by invitation only. Papers on captive breeding, new techniques or sampling methods, anecdotal or isolated natural history observations, geographic range extensions, and essays should be submitted to our sister journal, Herpetological Review.中文简介：（来自Google、百度翻译）《爬虫学杂志》接受有关两栖动物和爬行动物生物学各个方面的手稿，包括其行为，保护，生态学，形态学，生理学和系统学以及爬虫学教育。我们鼓励作者提交以数据为导向并对假设进行严格检验的手稿，或提供新颖分类单元 (活的或化石的) 的详尽描述。主题可以以深思熟虑的定量方式解决理论问题。也欢迎提供有关爬虫科学的新见解的评论和政策文件，但它们必须不仅仅是简单的文献评论。这些论文必须有一个中心焦点，提出一个新的论点来理解一个概念，或者提出一个新的方法来回答一个问题或解决一个问题。合并相关主题论文的焦点部分通常由编辑确定。长期观点部分的出版物仅受邀请。有关圈养繁殖，新技术或采样方法，轶事或孤立的自然历史观察，地理范围扩展和论文的论文应提交给我们的姊妹杂志《爬虫学评论》。
