About the journal
The Journal of Invertebrate Pathology presents original research articles and notes on the induction and pathogenesis of diseases of invertebrates, including the suppression of diseases in beneficial species, and the use of diseases in controlling undesirable species. In addition, the journal publishes the results of physiological, morphological, genetic, immunological and ecological studies as related to the etiologic agents of diseases of invertebrates.

Submission of Manuscripts
Manuscripts must be written in English and should be submitted in quadruplicate (one original and three photocopies), including four sets of good quality figures, to:
Journal of Invertebrate Pathology Editorial Office 525 B Street Suite 1900 San Diego, CA 92101-4495, USA Telephone: (619) 699-6337 Fax: (619) 699-6700 E-mail: jip@elsevier.com
There are no submission fees or page charges. Each manuscript should be accompanied by a letter outlining the basic findings and their significance. Authors are asked to suggest the names, addresses, telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses of three to five potential reviewers.
Electronic Submission. Authors are requested to transmit the text and art of the manuscript in electronic form, via computer disk, e-mail (jip@elsevier.com), or FTP (ftp.elsevier.com, with username anon and password essd4acc), each tome a new version is submitted. Submission as an e-mail attachment is acceptable provided that all files are included in a single archive the size of which does not exceed 2 megabytes. Hard-copy printouts of the manuscript and art that exactly match the electronic file must be supplied. The manuscript will be edited according to style of the journal, and authors must read the proofs carefully.
Manuscripts are accepted for review with the understanding that no substantial portion of the study has been published or is under consideration for publication elsewhere and that its submission for publication has been approved by all of the authors and by the institution where the work was carried out. Manuscripts that do not meet the general criteria or standards for publication in Journal of Invertebrate Pathology will be immediately returned to the authors, without detailed review.
Upon acceptance of an article, authors will be asked to transfer copyright (for more information on copyright, see http://authors.elsevier.com). This transfer will ensure the widest possible dissemination of information. A letter will be sent to the corresponding author confirming receipt of the manuscript. A form facilitating transfer of copyright will be provided after acceptance.
If material from other copyrighted works is included, the author(s) must obtain written permission from the copyright owners and credit the source(s) in the article. Elsevier has preprinted forms for use by authors in these cases: contact Elsevier Global Rights Department, P.O. Box 800, Oxford OX5 1DX, UK; phone: (+44) 1865 843830, fax: (+44) 1865 853333, e-mail: permissions@elsevier.com.
Notes. Manuscripts for Notes should be less than 500 words in length and contain not more than two illustrations or two small tables, or one of each. References should be kept at a minimum in Notes and should be styled according to the guidelines in the section on References.
Preparation of Manuscripts
Manuscripts should be double-spaced throughout on one side of 8.5 x 11-inch or A4 white paper. A useful writing guide is the latest edition of the CBE Style Manual, published by the Council of Biology Editors. This manual should also be used as a guide to most abbreviations employed. Proprietary substances and trade names must be accompanied (at the first mention) by the chemical name. Pages should be numbered consecutively and organized as follows:
The Title Page (p. 1) should contain the article title, authors' names and complete affiliations, footnotes to the title, and the address for manuscript correspondence (including e-mail address and telephone and fax numbers).
The Abstract (p. 2) must be a single paragraph that summarizes the main findings of the paper in less than 150 words. After the abstract a list of up to 10 keywords that will be useful for indexing or searching should be included. The key words should include the taxonomic designations of organisms, both host and pathogen(s), mentioned in the text and the major subject matter, e.g., castration, parasitic; biological control; or nuclear polyhedrosis virus, pathogenicity of. The names of enzymes, substrates, and other important compounds should also appear in the list of keywords.
The Introduction should be as concise as possible, without subheadings.
Materials and methods should be sufficiently detailed to enable the experiments to be reproduced.
Results and Discussion may be combined and may be organized into subheadings.
Acknowledgments should be brief and should precede the references.
References should be cited in the text by name and date. Only articles that have been published or are in press should be included in the references. Unpublished results or personal communications should be cited as such in the text. The names of journals should be abbreviated according to Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index. Please use the following style:
Becnel, J.J., 1997. Complementary techniques: preparations of entomopathogens and diseased specimens for more detailed study using microscopy. In Lacey, L.A. (Ed.), Manual of Techniques in Insect Pathology. Academic Press, San Diego, pp. 337-353.
Schneider, M., Dorn, A., 2001. Differential infectivity of two Pseudomonas species and the immune response in the milkweed bug, Oncopeltus fasciatus (Insecta: Hemiptera). J. Invertebr. Pathol. 78, 135-140.
Tanada, Y., 1992. Insect Pathology. Academic Press, San Diego.
Figures should be in a finished form suitable for publication. Number figures consecutively with Arabic numerals, and indicate the top and the authors on the back of each figure. Lettering on drawings should be professional quality or generated by high-resolution computer graphics and must be large enough to withstand appropriate reduction for publication. Please visit our Web site at http://authors.elsevier.com/artwork for detailed instructions on preparing electronic artwork.
Illustrations in color can be accepted only if the authors defray the cost. Mounted color figures must be submitted on paper or flexible board due to the nature of the reproduction process.
Tables should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals in order of appearance in the text. Type each table double-spaced on a separate page with a short descriptive title typed directly above and with essential footnotes below. Authors should submit complex tables as camera-ready copy.
Nomenclature. Binomial Latin names should be used in accordance with International Rules of Nomenclature. The first time a binomial is used, it should be fully spelled out. In papers largely taxonomic in nature the names (fully spelled out) of the authors of the scientific names should be used. Otherwise, the names of authors should be omitted.
Proofs
Proofs will be sent to the corresponding author. To avoid delay in publication, only necessary changes should be made, and proofs should be returned promptly. Authors will be charged for alterations that exceed 10% of the total cost of composition.
Author Inquiries
Authors can track the progress of their accepted articles and set up e-mail alerts informing them of changes to their manuscript status by using the "Track a Paper" feature of Elsevier Author Gateway (http://authors.elsevier.com). Contact details for questions arising after acceptance of an article, especially those relating to proofs, are provided when an article is accepted for publication.
