ACTA ICHTHYOLOGICA ET PISCATORIA

ACTA ICHTHYOLOGICA ET PISCATORIA (AIeP) is an international, peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes articles based on original experimental data or experimental methods, or new analyses of already existing data, in any aspect of ichthyology and fisheries (fin-fish only). We favour articles with an innovative approach, innovative interpretation, interesting justification of the research, and most of all, well fitting into the mainstream science. Such papers should constitute a step in a logical development of a subject and set new pathways for future research. We avoid accepting papers that are “isolated” (i.e., not linked to the “past” and “future” science). Manuscripts not fitting into the above-mentioned description (even those done perfectly in terms of methodology) are promptly rejected on the grounds of insufficient scientific priority. We discourage the practice of reporting results of a single study in two or more manuscripts (“salami science”).
