Focus and Scope

The American Journal of Biodiversity welcomes original research articles, review papers, short communications, and case studies related to all aspects of biodiversity science, including but not limited to:

  • Taxonomy and Systematics: Discovery, classification, and documentation of species, including morphological and molecular approaches.

  • Ecology and Ecosystem Function: Studies on species interactions, community dynamics, habitat structure, and ecological processes that influence biodiversity.

  • Conservation Biology: Research on threatened species, habitat loss, restoration ecology, protected area management, and biodiversity policy.

  • Biogeography and Evolution: Distribution patterns of species and populations, historical biogeography, speciation, and evolutionary diversification.

  • Genetic Diversity and Genomics: Molecular studies on population genetics, phylogenetics, and genomic tools for biodiversity assessment.

  • Climate Change and Biodiversity: Impacts of climate variability on ecosystems, species resilience, and adaptation strategies.

  • Invasive Species and Biodiversity Threats: Research on non-native species, ecological disruption, and biosecurity.

  • Ethnobiology and Traditional Knowledge: Studies on the role of indigenous and local knowledge in biodiversity conservation.

  • Urban and Agricultural Biodiversity: Biodiversity within human-modified landscapes and its role in sustainability and ecosystem services.

  • Agricultural Sciences and Animal Production

  • Food Science, Food Industries,

  • Biodiversity Monitoring and Indicators: Tools, technologies, and frameworks for tracking changes in biodiversity over time.
