Special volume

Special issues with collected papers such as a Festschrift within the scope of the journal are occasionally published. Zootaxa subject editors and/or other guest editors should send the proposal to the chief editor for approval and instructions. All papers must follow Zootaxa's style, standard and peer review procedures. If any papers by the guest editors are to be included in the special issue, then these papers must be handled by editors/colleagues other than the special issue editor(s) involved. Special issues must be 60 or more pages. Normally funding is required to offset part of the production cost (e.g. payment of article processing fee for open access for part or all of the papers, or purchase of hard copies). Special issues are published as standalone books and assigned ISBNs.
