Dear all,
I would like to add on the top of Zookyes, the Biodiversity Data
Journal: http://bdj.pensoft.net/
and the Research Ideas and Outcomes: http://riojournal.com/
from PENSOFT. Both are back by fantastic online applications for an
easy manuscript development and submission process in a highly
collaborative environment.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Christos.
