SCOPE Journal of Evolutionary Biochemistry and Physiology (Zhurnal evolyutsionnoi biokhimii i fiziologii) accepts for publication experimental and theoretical papers, reviews and information about the problems concerning evolution of the main forms of metabolism in connection with life origin, about comparative and ontogenetic physiology and biochemistry, biochemical evolution of animal world, as well as papers connected with the problem of evolution of functions, and on morphology, pharmacology, pathophysiology and ecological physiology.
Journal of Evolutionary Biochemistry and Physiology is abstracted and/or indexed in Chemical Abstracts.
The journal was founded in 1965.

For acceleration of the manuscript processing for publication, the Editor asks the author(s) to submit an electron copy of the manuscript on 3.5" disk. It is necessary to be accompanied by the printout of the text, figures in the usual form, the institution covering letter and the confirmation of the copyright transfer.
DESIGN
When designing the manuscript, the following rules should be followed, without which the manuscript will not to be considered. The title page The submitted manuscript is to have the title page. It should contain the title of the paper, which is to be brief and clear. It is to be followed by the initials and the last name(s) of the author(s), and the complete title of the institution, at which the work is performed, including city and country of this institution. Each position should occupy a separate line. If the paper is written by the authors from different institutions, these should be marked by asterisks (after the names and before the institutions, respectively). The title page should be signed by all authors. It should contain their addresses, phone and fax numbers, as well as the e-mail address, and the first and last name (completely) of the author, with which the Editor can communicate, if necessary. The title page is necessarily to indicate the problem and the type of the paper, for example: "evolutionary physiology, review" or "evolutionary morphology, experimental paper." The additional information page For the manuscripts written in Russian, one of the copies of the paper is to be added by a separate page to be used for adequate translation of the paper in English. This page should contain the following information in English: the tittle of the paper, initials and last names of the author(s), the title(s) of the affiliated institution(s), including the city and country of the institution(s), special terms and abbreviations used in the paper, as well as, separately, the key words. The names of the authors should be given in the transliteration accepted by the Russian Academy of Sciences and the British Royal Society. If the authors wish their names to be published in the English version of the Journal in other transliteration (e.g. that was used previously), they should note it on this additional page. It is necessary to give the list of cited English books that were translated into Russian and published by the "Mir" Publisher or other Publishers. The author last name(s) in original transcri ption, the complete title of the book, the year and place of the original edition are to be indicated. Abstract The abstract (1/2 page of "typewritten" text, no more than 250 words) should be submitted as the single paragraph on the separate page and added to the manuscri pt (3 copies). In the end, as a separate line, no more than six key words are to be indicated, for example: "Key words: evolution, ontogenesis, cholinesterase,..." The main text "Full-size paper." The text of the manuscript is to begin with the new page and to include the following sections: "Introduction," "Materials and Methods," "Results," "Discussion.". The paper should be written briefly and clearly. In the print-out, on the left margin, it should be marked by a pencil the location of the figure or table. The references to the literature in the text should be given in the citation order as Arabian numerals in square brackets, e.g. [1.4, 5, 7]. The formulas are given in the text legibly, with an accurate designation of superscri pt and subscript indexes. It is necessary to specify especially carefully the characters, similar in shape, for example, "C" in lower and upper cases, the Roman "e" and "l", the capital "O" (it should be double underlined by a pencil) and zero (not underlined) etc. The enzymes, when first mentioned, should be termed by the complete name with numeral code according to the International Classification of Enzymes (Commission on enzymes, JUB). All abbreviations should be given only in English. When the enzyme is mentioned again, the standard trivial name may be used. For example, the complete name is acetyl CoA: choline-O-acetyl-transferase (EC 2.3.1.6), the trivial name is cholineacetyltransferase (not cholineacetylase). "Short communication" is to be not longer than 5 pages of the ihtypewrittenls text, including tables, references (no more than 5 references) and one figure (a graph). The short communication should contain a new information material, whose fast publication is especially desirable. The author(s) should make the mark on the manuscript to be published in the section "Short communications." "Letter to Editor" is intended for a fast publication of an information about a new, original material or about a new methodical development. The letter to Editor should not exceed the volume of two double-spaced iotypewrittenls pages with standard margins. No tables and figures in the letters are submitted. No more that 4 references may be cited, their bibliography data given in the end of the letter in the form accepted in the Journal. In the publication of any type, names of the studied animals are necessarily to be written in Latin. If only one animal species is studied, its Latin name should be included in the paper title. The Editor reserves the right to shorten the manuscripts. Illustrations No more than 5 figures can be enclosed to the full-size paper. The combination in the single figure of several frames requiring preparation of different cliches (gray-scale and graphics) is not accepted. The size of figures should allow them to occupy in total not more than two journal pages of the A4 format. The figures are submitted in 3 copies in a separate envelope, on which the name(s) of the author(s), paper title and the number of the enclosed figures are written. All markings are to be done only on one copy of figures, while two others free of any markings. Parts of the figures should be designated by lower case letters (a, b, c). The inscriptions inside drawings and designation are written with a capital letter (A-axon, M-membrane). The drawings should be submitted in the form that rules out any corrections or additions. The graphs are to be made by ink on tracing-paper, on dense paper or printed out using a laser printer. On the back of each figure, written by a pencil should be the author(s) name(s), the number of the figure, and the top of the figure should be indicate, if its correct orientation in the text is not evident. In the figure captions, the figure title should be given, its letters and numbers deciphered, and the sequence of location of the illustrative material specified, etc. The magnification should be indicated for microphotographs, and the scale for electrograms. Other explanations should be given in the text. The photos should be made on a white roller glossy paper. The figure captions should be submitted on separate pages, separately from the main text of the manuscript. The illustrations prepared on a floppy disk should be saved in the *.TIF or *.CDR format. Convertion to other graphic formats can be done by the publishers. Tables The tables should be printed in double space, with ordinal Arabian numbers (for example: Table 1). The table should have the general heading. All columns without exception should have headings. No abbreviations of words (except for standard) are to be present in the tables. Each table should be printed on a separate page, separately from the main text of the manuscript. The tables prepared in the electron form (on floppy disk) should be composed in lines, not breaking contents of cells, and separating columns by tabulators. The text of the paper should not duplicate the contents of the illustrative material. Acknowledgments, if the author needs them, should be brief. They can contain the information on the source of financial support of the study, partici pants of discussion, of design of the work, etc. References should be submitted on separate page(s). Only the papers cited in the text are to be included in the reference list. All works mentioned in the text should be included in the list. References are arranged in the order of their mention in the text. The bibliography should look as follows:
