About the journal
The American Journal of Primatology welcomes manuscripts on non-human primates in all areas of basic and applied life sciences. To meet the goals of the journal, each manuscript must explicitly present and support the significance of its contribution to primatology. To this end, it must be clear from the Abstract, Introduction and Discussion of each manuscript that the principal focus is to increase significantly the understanding of the behavior or biology of primates in natural, semi-natural or formal captive environments, enhance welfare, management or research value of primates in any or all of these environments, advance knowledge of the evolution of primate diversity, or contribute to the conservation of this diversity.
The journal publishes both original Research Articles and Review Articles. In limited cases where the reported research is of scientific merit but compelling circumstances have limited the number of subjects available or constrained the scope of the data collected, manuscripts may be considered for a Brief Report.
Instructions to Authors
Disk Submission Instructions Wiley's Journal Styles and EndNote
Electronic submission (E-mail) is preferred. The first author's surname and the page number should appear in the upper left hand corner of each page. Research Articles and Review Articles should not exceed 30 manuscript pages, and Brief Reports must not exceed 12 manuscript pages, including the abstract, all text, references, figures, tables, legends. Manuscripts should be divided into the seven major divisions given below.
Title page. The first page of the manuscript should consist of a single page and include the complete title of the paper; the names of authors and their affiliations; a short title (not more than 40 characters including spaces) to be used as a running head; and name, postal address, E-mail address, and phone number of person to whom editorial correspondence, page proofs, and reprint requests should be sent.
Abstract. The abstract must be a factual condensation of the entire work, including a statement of its purpose, a succinct statement of research design, a clear description of the most important results, and a concise presentation of the conclusions. Abstracts should not exceed 300 words. Three to six key words for use in indexing should be listed immediately below the abstract.
Text. The body of Research Articles and Brief Reports must be organized into the following sections: Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and Acknowledgments. In addition to summarizing key data using tables and figures where possible, the Results section must include the essential values from all statistical tests cited to support statements regarding findings. Acknowledgments may include funding sources such as agency and grant number; names of those who contributed but are not authors; accreditation of facilities, or other information relevant to scientific research ethics; new affiliations of authors; and other brief notes in lieu of footnotes to the text. The body of Review Articles should begin with an Introduction and end with a General Discussion, with the intervening text divided by topical headings as appropriate. If photos or identifiable data on human subjects are in any manuscript, they must be accompanied with a notarized copy of the consent form. Footnotes are not be used except for tables and figures. Nonstandard abbreviations should be kept to a minimum and defined in the text. Measurements should be given in metric units and abbreviated according to the Style Manual for Biological Journal of the American Institute for Biological Sciences.

Legends. A descriptive legend must be provided for each illustration and must define all abbreviations used therein.
Tables. Tables should be titled and designated with roman numerals conforming with the order of their appearance. They should be used primarily for presentation of data too complex to be included in the text. All tables must be cited in the text with approximate placement clearly defined.
Illustrations. Five copies of any photographs (13 X 18 cm) should be provided on glossy paper. All figures should be high-contrast and labeled on the back with the first author's name, figure number corresponding to order of initial citation in the text, and an arrow indicating the orientation of the illustration. The approximate placement of each figure must be clearly identified in the text. The Editorial Office cannot be responsible for original artwork submitted. All color figures will be reproduced in full color in the online edition of the journal at no cost to authors. Authors are requested to pay the cost of reproducing color figures in print. Authors are encouraged to submit color illustrations that highlight the text and convey essential scientific information. For best reproduction, bright, clear colors should be used. Dark colors against a dark background do not reproduce well; please place your color images against a white background wherever possible. Please contact Karen Accavallo at kaccaval@wiley.com for further information.
All manuscripts submitted to the American Journal of Primatology must be submitted solely to this journal, and may not have been published in any substantial form in any other publication, professional or lay. The publisher reserves copyright, and no published material may be reproduced or published elsewhere without the written permission of the publisher and the author. The journal will not be responsible for the loss of manuscripts at any time. All statements in, or omissions from, published manuscripts are the responsibility of the authors who will assist the editors by reviewing proofs before publication. Reprint order forms will be sent with galley proofs. No page charges will be levied against authors or their institutions for publication in the journal.
Disk Submission Instructions
Please return your final, revised manuscript on disk as well as hard copy. The hard copy must match the disk.
The Journal strongly encourages authors to deliver the final, revised version of their accepted manuscripts (text, tables, and, if possible, illustrations) on disk. Given the near-universal use of computer word-processing for manuscript preparation, we anticipate that providing a disk will be convenient for you, and it carries the added advantages of maintaining the integrity of your keystrokes and expediting typesetting. Please return the disk submission slip below with your manuscript and labeled disk(s).
Guidelines for Electronic Submission
Text Storage medium. 3-1/2" high-density disk in IBM MS-DOS, Windows, or Macintosh format.
Software and format. Microsoft Word 6.0 is preferred, although manuscripts prepared with any other microcomputer word processor are acceptable. Refrain from complex formatting; the Publisher will style your manuscript according to the Journal design specifications. Do not use desktop publishing software such as Aldus PageMaker or Quark XPress. If you prepared your manuscript with one of these programs, export the text to a word processing format. Please make sure your word processing program's "fast save" feature is turned off. Please do not deliver files that contain hidden text: for example, do not use your word processor's automated features to create footnotes or reference lists.
File names. Submit the text and tables of each manuscript as a single file. Name each file with your last name (up to eight letters). Text files should be given the three-letter extension that identifies the file format. Macintosh users should maintain the MS-DOS "eight dot three" file-naming convention.
Labels. Label all disks with your name, the file name, and the word processing program and version used.
Illustrations All print reproduction requires files for full color images to be in a CMYK color space. If possible, ICC or ColorSync profiles of your output device should accompany all digital image submissions.
Storage medium. Submit as separate files from text files, on separate disks or cartridges. If feasible, full color files should be submitted on separate disks from other image files. 3-1/2" high-density disks, CD, Iomega Zip, and 5 1/4" 44- or 88-MB SyQuest cartridges can be submitted. At authors' request, cartridges and disks will be returned after publication.
Software and format. All illustration files should be in TIFF or EPS (with preview) formats. Do not submit native application formats.
Resolution. Journal quality reproduction will require greyscale and color files at resolutions yielding approximately 300 ppi. Bitmapped line art should be submitted at resolutions yielding 600-1200 ppi. These resolutions refer to the output size of the file; if you anticipate that your images will be enlarged or reduced, resolutions should be adjusted accordingly.
File names. Illustration files should be given the 2- or 3-letter extension that identifies the file format used (i.e., .tif, .eps).
Labels. Label all disks and cartridges with your name, the file names, formats, and compression schemes (if any) used. Hard copy output must accompany all files.
