Phytocoenologia, founded in 1973 by R. Tüxen,
publishes original papers in the fields of vegetation ecology. The journal
covers all aspects of phytosociology in a comprehensive sense, i.e. including
interactions between plant (and animal) organisms (coenological geobotany), the
history and origin of phytocoenoses, vegetation dynamics, floristic and
structural analysis of the plant cover (classification and ordination),
fundamental environmental studies of plant ecosystems (synecology), pattern
analyses from the ecosystem to the landscape level, and aspects of reproduction,
dispersal and population biology in plant communities. The journal is open to
methodological, theoretical, experimental and applied approaches.
The contributions should appeal to an
international readership. Papers whose content is restricted to purely
syntaxonomical and nomenclatural aspects or to local vegetation studies will not
be accepted. Supraregional, synoptic views and comparative studies of vegetation
types are welcome.
Thematic issues devoted to current topics and special volumes (e.g., with
selected contributions of I.A.V.S. and F.I.P.-Symposia) will also be considered
for publication.
PHYTOCOENOLOGIA is indexed/abstracted in:
Biological Abstracts, CAB Abstracts, Current Contents (Agriculture, Biology, and
Environmental Science), Research Alert, Science Citation Index, SciSearch, and
SWEFT Current Contents.
