The International Journal of Acarology has a global readership and publishes original research and review papers on a wide variety of acarological subjects including: • mite and tick behavior • biochemistry • biology • control • ecology • evolution • morphology • physiology • systematics • taxonomy (single species descriptions are discouraged unless accompanied by additional new information on ecology, biology, systematics, etc.) All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor. If the English is not of a quality suitable for reviewers, the manuscript will be returned.
