We plan to publish the proceedings in the Swiss Journal of Palaeontology (the impact factor is currently at 3.0 and thus ranked in the top five journals in palaeontology). The APC currently amounts to about 1500 €, but colleagues from institutions with contracts with Springer Nature automatically get waivers. This also applies to low-income countries. Pensoft has agreed to reduce the APC 50% for Moroccan authors. Further, colleagues without funding sources can be supported; they should then contact the editor-in-chief Daniel Marty or Christian Klug. The abstracts will be published in Ichthyolith Issues.
