Did you know we are one of two journals produced by the Natural History Museum London. We champion the importance of collections-based systematics and our papers cover fossil species from across the tree of life, substantially contributing to the systematics of extinct taxa. So, why publish with us?

why we are doing this: PRI is one of America's largest museum collections, and they need to raise the last 1/3 of funds (~$1mil) needed to pay off their mortgage by Dec (a donor backed out of a pledge) or it will be the largest orphaned collection in US history. www.science.org/content/arti...
