References
Literature citations in the text should indicate the author's surname with the year of publication in parentheses, e.g. Carlin (1992); Brooks and Carlin (1992). If there are more than two authors, only the first should be named, followed by "et al."
References at the end of the paper should be listed in alphabetical order by the first author's name. If there is more than one work by the same author or team of authors in the same year, a, b, etc. is added to the year both in the text and in the list of references.
*Journal papers: name(s) and initial(s) of all authors; year; full title; journal title abbreviated in accordance with international practice; volume number; first and last page numbers
Example:
Rivals F, Kacimi S, Moutoussamy J (2004) Artiodactyls, favourite game of prehistoric hunters at the Caune de l'Arago Cave (Tautavel, France). Opportunistic or selective hunting strategies? E J Wildl Res 50:25-32
If available, the Digital Object Identifier (DOI) of the cited literature should be added at the end of the reference in question.
Example:
Russell AJM, Storch I (2004) Summer food of sympatric red fox and pine marten in the German Alps. E J Wildl Res DOI 10.1007/s10344-004-0041-4
*Single contributions in a book:
name(s) and initial(s) of all authors; year; title of article; editor(s); title of book; edition; volume number; publisher; place of publication; page numbers

Tables and figures
Tables must be numbered consecutively with arabic numerals and submitted separately from the text. They should have a heading explaining any abbreviation used in that table. Footnotes to tables should be indicated by superscript lower-case letters.
Illustrations must be restricted to the minimum needed to clarify the text. All figures (photographs, graphs or diagrams) should be cited in the text, and numbered consecutively throughout. Figure parts should be identified by lower-case roman letters (a, b, etc.). If illustrations are supplied with uppercase labeling, lower-case letters will still be used in the figure legends and citations.
Figure legends must be brief, self-sufficient explanations of the illustrations. The legends should be placed at the end of the text. Submit all figures as separate files and do not integrate them within the text.
|
Line drawings
Inscriptions should be legible, with initial capital letters and appropriately scaled to the size of the drawing. Letters 2 mm high are recommended. Scanned line drawings should be digitized with a resolution of 800 dpi relative to the final figure size.
|
|
|
Computer drawings
Computer drawings are acceptable provided they are of comparable quality to line drawings (minimum resolution of 300 dpi). Computer-drawn curves and lines must be smooth. Lettering must be of high quality; Helvetica is the preferred font. Lettering fonts must be consistent within and among all figures.
|
|
|
Halftone illustrations (black and white and color)
Sharp, well-contrasted photographic prints trimmed at right angles and in the desired final size should be submitted. Please indicate the top on the back. Magnification should be indicated by scale bars. For scanned halftone illustrations, a resolution of 300 dpi is usually sufficient, TIFF is the preferred file format.
|
|
|
Color illustrations
The authors will be expected to make a contribution (485 € per paper, plus 16% VAT) towards the extra costs of color reproduction and printing. Save color illustrations as RGB (8 bits per channel) in TIFF format.
|
|
|
Plates
Several figures or figure parts should be grouped in a plate on one page.
|
|
|
Vector graphics
Fonts used in the vector graphics must be included. Please do not draw with hairlines. The minimum line width is 0.2 mm (i.e., 0.567 pt) relative to the final size. EPS is the preferred file format. EPS files must always contain a preview in TIFF of the figure.
|
|
|
Size of figures
The figures, including legends, should either match the column width (86 mm) or the print area of 176 x 236 mm. In case reduction is absolutely necessary, please state the alternative scale desired. The publisher reserves the right to reduce or enlarge illustrations.
|
|

The file name should be memorable (e.g., author name), have no more than 8 characters, and include no accents or special symbols. Use only the extensions that the program assigns automatically.
Electronic Supplementary Material
Electronic Supplementary Material (ESM) for a paper will be published in the electronic edition of this journal provided the material is:
|
submitted in electronic form together with the manuscript
|
|
|
accepted after peer review
|
| ESM may consist of:
|
information that cannot be printed: animations, video clips, sound recordings (use QuickTime, .avi, .mpeg, animated GIFs, or any other common file format)
|
|
|
information that is more convenient in electronic form: sequences, spectral data, etc.
|
|
|
large quantities of original data that relate to the paper, e.g. additional tables, large numbers of illustrations (color and black & white), etc.
|
| Legends must be brief, self-sufficient explanations of the ESM. ESM is to be numbered and referred to as S1, S2, etc.
After acceptance for publication, ESM will be published as received from the author in the online version only. Reference will be given in the printed version.
Proofreading
Authors are informed by e-mail that a temporary URL has been created from which they can obtain their proofs. Proofreading is the responsibility of the author. Authors should make their proof corrections (formal corrections only) on a printout of the pdf file supplied, checking that the text is complete and that all figures and tables are included. Substantial changes in content, e.g. new results, corrected values, title and authorship are not allowed without the approval of the responsible editor. In such a case please contact the Editorial Office before returning the proofs to the publisher. After online publication, corrections can only be made in exceptional cases and in the form of an Erratum, which will be hyperlinked to the paper.
Online First
Papers will be published online about one week after receipt of the corrected proofs. Papers published online can already be cited by their DOI. After release of the printed version, the paper can also be cited by issue and page numbers.
Offprints
Thirty offprints of each contribution are supplied free of charge. If you wish to order additional offprints you must return the order form which is provided with the proofs and return it together with the corrected proofs. When ordering additional offprints, an author is entitled to receive, upon request, a pdf file of the paper for own personal use.
