ZOOMORPHOLOGY

The journal Zoomorphology publishes original research papers based on morphological investigation of invertebrates and vertebrates, reviews designed as comparative surveys summarizing current knowledge from an evolutionary perspective and method papers presenting new approaches or reviews on methods used in animal morphology. Coverage spans the macroscopic, microscopic and ultrastructural levels, including embryological studies.The journal places special emphasis on:Comparison - Studies comparing morphological and anatomical structures in an evolutionary contextFunction - Studies relating structure and functionIntegration - Studies on the relation between structural-functional systems of animals and their general biologyEvolution - Studies on the evolution of morphological and anatomical structures on the basis of sound phylogeniesDevelopment - Studies on the spatiotemporal formation of morphological and anatomical structures

《动物形态学》杂志发表了以无脊椎动物和脊椎动物的形态学研究为基础的原始研究论文，综述设计为从进化角度总结当前知识的比较调查，以及介绍动物形态学研究新方法或方法综述的方法论文。覆盖范围包括宏观、微观和超微结构水平，包括胚胎学研究。该杂志特别强调:比较-在进化背景下比较形态学和解剖学结构的研究功能-有关结构和功能的研究整合-研究动物的结构-功能系统与其一般生物学之间的关系进化-以健全的系统发育为基础的形态学和解剖学结构的进化研究发育-形态学和解剖学结构的时空形成的研究
