All submissions must meet the following requirements.

  • The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.
  • The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word (.DOC not .DOCX), or RTF document file format.
  • The text is single-spaced; uses a 10-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
  • Most of the references come from current scientific journals (c. 80% published in the last 10 years), except for taxonomic papers.
  • Where available, DOIs for the references have been provided.
  • When available, a certificate for proofreading is included.
  • Note: Authors understand that they are subject to an invoice of USD 300 (IDR 4,500,000) prior to publication (uncorrected proof stage)
