About the journal
|
Blumea is an externally refereed international journal containing papers on descriptive botany (taxonomy, plant-geography, morphology, anatomy) of Phanerogams as well as Cryptogams (excluding Fungi). Geographical coverage parallels the focusses of the three branches of the Nationaal Herbarium Nederland: Africa, south of the Sahara; Malesia; South America, especially the Guianas.
As a rule three parts are issued per year. One volume comprises about 600 pages.

Guiana抯). The preferred language is English.
Checklist for preparation of manuscripts
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
/ BLUMEA allows: bold, CAPITAL LETTERS and italics in the appropriate places. Please never
use: hanging indents, small print or underlined text. If needed these items will be applied by the
desk editor. Always check the last issue of Blumea for guidance.
/ Start with a concise and informative title, followed by the name(s) and address(es) of
the author(s). In taxonomic papers the family name should be included in the title. Avoid authors
of plant names in headings as much as possible.
/ Each paper should be provided with a summary not exceeding 250 words. Provide, on a separate
line, up to 7 key words, preceded by 慘ey words:?BR>/ Double-spaced manuscript throughout (one-sided), including literature citations, tables, and
figure captions.
/ Leave at least 2.5 cm margin on all sides of the typed pages.
/ Do not use proportional spacing or justified margins.
/ Type major headings on a separate line and in capitals. Never use capitals except for initials and
major headings. Scientific names, family names excepted, should preferably be typed in italics.
Further indication of letter types will be done by the editors. (However, if you wish to highlight
a word by using italics or bold, this should be indicated on the hard copy and the disk.)
/ Author citation in synonym blocks should be as follows:
Hemarhtria longiflora (Hook.f.) A. Camus (1922) 380
Rottboelia longiflora Hook.f. (1869) 154
The full citation, including titles of papers, book titles, journal names, etc., should be added to
慠eferences?in the format that is used in that section.
/ Cite each figure and table in the text, and as far as possible, cite them in numerical order.
/ Put a double hyphen between ranges of quantitative values, e.g., 4--10 mm, (5--)7--9 cm, without
spaces. For fractions of numbers the decimal system should be used.
/ Keys. For keys the bracketed type is compulsory.
/ In taxonomic papers abbreviations of authors preferably as in 慉uthors of Plant Names?(APN),
edited by R.K. Brummitt & C.E. Powell, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.
/ Index. At the end of large papers an index of scientific names should be given, preferably
referring to the taxon numbers.
/ Quoting of collections in full (including locality data, dates, etc.) is only permitted for type
specimens and for the (usually few) specimens of new taxa. All other specimens should be given
in an Identification List.
/ The order of the parts of specimen citations (type specimens, specimens of new taxa) should be:
collector + number (herbaria), locality (country, province, etc.), date.
/ Always check the latest issues of Blumea for guidance. Make your descriptions with headings
etc. conform to Blumea standards!
REFERENCES
/ Literature citations in the text should be as follows:
1. One author: Lam (1932) or (Lam, 1932) or Lam (1932: 288).
2. Two authors: Smith & Gomez (1990) or (Smith & Gomez, 1990).
3. Three or more authors: Smith et al. (1990) or (Smith et al., 1990). But give all author
names in the References.
4. Multiple references when within parentheses (Liu, 1977; Smith, 1989, 1990).
(Citations in References continued)
/ In citation of literature abbreviations of journals should preferably be according to Botanico-
Periodicum-Huntianum. Citations in the 慠eferences?should be as follows:
For books, e.g.:
Hillis, W.E. 1987. Heartwood and tree exudates. Springer Verlag, Berlin.
For chapters in a book, e.g.:
Esau, K. 1964. Structure and development of the bark in dicotyledons. In: M.H. Zimmermann
(ed.), The formation of wood in forest trees: 37--50. Academic Press, New York.
For journals, e.g.:
Bailey, I.W. & C.G. Nast. 1945. Morphology and relationships of Trochodendron and Tetracentron,
1. Stem, root, and leaf. J. Arnold Arbor. 26: 143--154.
/ Do not use italics or bold in the references.
/ Write out the name(s) of author(s), i.e., do not replace author names with a long dash, when the
author(s) is (are) the same as in the immediate preceding citation(s).
Note: Use only a period, without a space, between the initial(s) of an author抯 name. Leave one
space between the volume number with colon and page numbers in a journal article. Use double
hyphens between page numbers, e.g., J. Arnold Arbor. 10: 72--81.
/ Sorting of names of persons in references and specimens lists follows international standards.
For instance, Dutch names with prefixes (Van, De, Van de, etc.) should be sorted on the first
letter of the prefix: Van Steenis will appear under the letter V; De Vogel under the letter D, etc.
ILLUSTRATIONS
/ Illustrations should be either black-and-white photographs printed on glossy paper or
text figures executed in India ink (preferably not on transparent or tracing paper), or photographic
reproductions thereof.
/ Colour photographs. Blumea will print colour photographs, however, the author should pay for
the printing costs. Because of the printing process the payment should cover the full printing
sheet (max. 8 photographs). The cost of one printing sheet in colour is: NLG 1200 (approx.
?546). Group photographs (or drawings) into plates, and mount them carefully leaving about
1 mm space between individual photographs.
/ Maximum page dimensions for a (photo)plate are 120 ?190 mm, but authors are advised to
allow space for captions at the bottom of the page.
/ Magnifications should be indicated by a scale bar.
/ Captions of all illustrations should be given on a separate manuscript page.
SUBMITTING THE MANUSCRIPT
/ Three type-script copies should be submitted, with two copies of the illustrations (copies should
be of a high quality, suitable for review purposes, and show all important details). For safety
reasons, original illustrations are only required after acceptance of the manuscript. If the format
of the manuscript does not generally conform to the instructions outlined above, it may be
returned to the authors and not sent out for review.
/ After acceptance of the manuscript authors are requested to submit a diskette (3.5 inch HD) with
their typescript. Preferred processors are WORD 6 (or higher) for Windows or Macintosh, or
WordPerfect 5.1 (or higher) for MS-DOS. Please save the file also as RTF, ASCII or 憈ext only?
REPRINTS
/ No free reprints. The standard price of reprints is NLG 30 (approx. ?14) per 100 copies of each
article page. Reprints may be ordered in units of 25, or a multiple thereof.
