ALCHERINGA

An Australasian Journal of Palaeontology

About the Journal
Alcheringa publishes articles on aspects of palaeontology and its applications to the earth and biological sciences, including taxonomy, biostratigraphy, micropalaeontology, vertebrate palaeontology, palaeobotany, palynology, palaeobiology, palaeoanatomy, palaeoecology, biostratinomy, biogeography, chronobiology, biogeochemistry, and ichnology. Review articles are welcome, and may be solicited from time to time. Thematic issues are also possible. Emphasis is placed on high quality and informative illustration, in both line drawings and photographs. Papers of general significance may receive preference over those of more local interest.

AUSTRALASIAN PALAEONTOLOGICAL MEMOIRS

About the Journal
Initiated in 1983, the Memoirs are a monographic series published by AAP. Until 2015 it was known as Memoirs of the Association of Australasian Palaeontologists.

Scope
The Memoirs series publishes peer-reviewed papers on all aspects of palaeontology and its applications in the earth and biological sciences, including taxonomy, biostratigraphy, vertebrate and invertebrate palaeontology, ichnology, palaeobotany, palynology, palaeobiology, palaeoecology, palaeobiogeography and biogeochemistry among others. The Memoir series is designed for longer monographic treatments but will also consider thematic sets of papers and commonly publishes conference proceedings.

Submitting to Australasian Palaeontological Memoirs

The submission of a paper to the Memoirs will be regarded as a contract with AAP that the paper or a substantially similar one has not been submitted for publication elsewhere, nor will be, upon acceptance by the Memoirs. Upon publication, the paper and the copyright thereof become the property of AAP unless reserved by the Crown. Requests to reproduce material from the Memoirs should be directed to the Chief Editor.
