Instructions to Authors
Editorial policy
Descriptive, analytical and experimental papers on the ecology, behaviour, biogeography and conservation of birds will be published. The geographical emphasis of Ornis Fennica is on Fennoscandia, but papers from other regions will also be considered. There is no page charge in Ornis Fennica.
Submission of manuscripts
Authors submitting a manuscript do so on the understanding that the work has not been published before, is not being considered for publication elsewhere, and has been read and approved by all authors. Submit your manuscript (in English only, with Finnish or Swedish summary if possible) exclusively to the Editor. Linguistic usage should be correct. Three copies (printouts with numbered pages) with figures, their captions, and tables (on separate pages) are needed. The author's telephone, telefax numbers and possibly e-mail address, should always be provided together with the postal address. In principle, only manuscripts prepared on a computer will be considered. When accepted, a diskette with a file containing the manuscript and possibly files with the figures has to be provided. Illustrations will not be returned.
Recommended format
The text of a manuscript should be typed in courier without special style settings (unindented, no boldface, capitalization, multiple spaces or other unusual formatting). A blank line should be used to separate headings, sections and paragraphs from the text that follows.
Title: Never in capitals or boldface, not centred.
Author: Always full first name (other initials, if any) and surname (James T. Brown, not J. T. Brown).
Address: As complete as possible. The sequence: author's name and address, must be fully repeated for each author.
Abstract should consist of only one paragraph of up to 200 words. It should be informative (summarising) rather than indicative (listing). All relevant key words should be included in the abstract, and should not be given as a separate list. Articles submitted as 'Brief reports' do not require an abstract.
Headings of chapters (Introduction, Material and methods, Results, Discussion and other main headings) are numbered decimally starting with '1.'. 'Abstract', 'References' and 'Acknowledgements', are not numbered.
Sub-chapters headings must be numbered e.g.: '1.1.', '1.1.1.' and so on, depending on how many levels of sub-chapters you have in your article.
Use italics for Latin names of species (e.g. Parus ater) and words that are originally not English (e.g. in vitro, et al.). Use initial capitals for common species names of birds only (e.g. Grey-headed Woodpecker, Blue Tit, but in general woodpeckers, tits/titmice).
Referring to literature in the text:
Mihok et al. (1985) or (Mihok et al. 1985).
Kurtén and Anderson (1980) or (Kurtén & Anderson 1980).
(Kurtén & Anderson 1980, Mihok et al. 1985).
When referring to more than one publication, arrange them using the following keys: 1. year of publication (ascending), 2. alphabetical order for the same year of publication.
Lists: Begin each item with a single hyphen-dash '-' in the beginning of the line followed by one space. Each item always occupies a separate line e.g.:
- first item,
- second item.
Equations: Each equation occupies a separate line. Indicate its number on the right-hand side e.g.:
N = 0.3W ln(a + b) (1).
References:
Begin with the heading 'References'; they must have the same format as the text (scientific names are not italicised).
Abbreviate journal names as in Biol. Abstracts; if in doubt, do not abbreviate.
Each reference must be separated from the next one with one blank line.
Ordinary journal article:
Järvinen, O. & Väisänen, R. A. 1978: Long-term changes of the most abundant south Finnish forest birds during the past 50 years. -- J. Ornithol. 119: 441--449.
If an article is printed with Cyrillic letters, add the original form of the author's name, use translated (not transliterated!) title (within parentheses () if not translated in original publication):
Korbut, V. V. (Korbut, V. V.) 1989: Nest building of hooded crows. 1. Utilisation of different substrata. -- Zool. Zh. 68: 88--95. (In Russian with English summary.)
Book:
Kurtén, B. & Anderson, E. 1980: Pleistocene mammals of North America. -- Columbia Univ. Press, New York.
Chapter in a publication:
Gerlach, S. A. 1978: Nematomorpha. -- In: Illies, J. (ed.), Limnofauna Europaea. 2 ed.: 50--53.
International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. 3 ed. -- Int. Trust Zool. Nomencl., London 1985.
Finnish Meteorol. Inst. 1989: Climatological data 1988. -- Meteorol. Yearb. Finland 88: 1--125.
Article in press may be included in the references list, with the name of the journal and year followed by '(In press.)'.
Material in preparation or unpublished cannot be included in the reference list, and can only be referred to in the text using all authors' initial(s) and name(s) followed by 'in prep.', 'unpubl.' or 'pers. comm.'.
Tables should be made exclusively with the same word-processing program as the text. They must be referred to as 'Table', followed by a number. They must fit an A4 page (upright). Do not use the table tools of your word-processing program. Always use tabulator marks to separate columns within tables (there must be the same amount of tabulator marks as columns in a table). Never use multiple spaces or spaces and tabs while formatting tables. Do not use vertical lines as dividers, only horizontal lines are allowed.
Figures, drawings and photographs must be referred to as 'Fig.', followed by a number. All figures (pictures, drawings and photographs) must be clearly identified on the other side with the name(s) of the author(s) and number of the figure. In questionable cases, the top of the picture should be marked. All captions must be placed on a separate page apart from the figures. A figure, drawing or photograph including all texts and legends can be at the most 200 mm (width) 290 mm (height). Avoid fancy design (e.g. 3-D). Relate the size of letters, the thickness of lines, and the size of other parts of a figure, to the size of the figure itself. Explain all graphic symbols within the figure. Identify parts of a composite figure with letters, not numbers. Do not use fine rasters for filling of columns or areas. Only solid (white and/or black) or line-type fillings are allowed. Figures must withstand size reduction.
Photographs (black-and-white in print) should be provided as black-and-white prints, or slides accompanied with respective black-and-white prints. The top of the photo must be indicated with an arrow. Avoid writing on the photo itself, use adhesive letters instead.
Photographs (colour in print) can be reproduced but the Author will be charged for colour printing. For details contact the Editor.
Procedure after acceptance
All manuscripts within the scope of the journal are reviewed by at least two reviewers. Authors will generally be notified of acceptance or rejection within two months. The Author(s) should consider all suggestions proposed by the referees and the Editor, and make appropriate changes. Major changes presuppose a new review process. The Editor retains the right to modify the style and length of a manuscript; for major changes the Author(s) will be consulted. First or appointed author will receive a pageproof for approval. Extensive alterations are not allowed at this stage. The journal provides 50 free offprints.
