We are excited to announce you that we are ready to receive papers for the Stickleback2018 Special Issue of Evolutionary Ecology Research (EER). Any papers related to sticklebacks will be considered even if they were not presented during the conference. Here are the instructions.
1. The deadline for abstract submission is September 30 and that for the entire manuscript is October 31, 2018. The special collection will appear in spring or summer of 2019, so take the deadline very seriously.
2. First submit your title page and abstract to EER directly (Mike Rosenzweig, scarab@u.arizona.edu) by September 30th, noting in your email that it is for the stickleback special collection. Please copy Jun Kitano (jkitano@nig.ac.jp) and Andrew Hendry (andrew.hendry@mcgill.ca). Mike Rosenzweig will edit your abstract and return it to you to incorporate in your ms. You will then send the entire paper to Jun Kitano (jkitano@nig.ac.jp) by October 31th. Please copy Mike Rosenzweig and Andrew Hendry. You paper will be handled by one of the editors (see below).
3. Please follow very carefully the guide to authors for EER: http://www.evolutionary-ecology.com/advice/AdviceFrames.html. EER has some specific guidelines, such as the nature of the abstract and the use of bar charts. See examples in EER, including the sample issue at http://evolutionary-ecology.com/sample/sample.html. Papers that do not conform to EER format will be returned for appropriate adjustments before review.
