Dear Colleagues, A special issue about Sensory Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior, the 3rd issue (June issue) this year, has been published. http://www.currentzoology.org/currentissue.asp . This issue contains very exciting findings in this filed, please see the below paper titles.
CURRENT ZOOLOGY is a bimonthly, peer-reviewed international journal that publishes reviews, research articles, and short communications in all aspects of Zoology, including significant new findings of fundamental and general interest. Submissions in the research fields of ecology, behavioral biology, biogeography, conservation biology, evolutionary biology and genomics are especially welcome. In particular, CURRENT ZOOLOGY seeks to publish research that explores the interface between zoological disciplines, and is truly integrative by illuminating the greater picture. Looking forward to your future submissions.
