Overview

The Journal of Ornithology (formerly Journal für Ornithologie) is the official journal of the German Ornithologists' Society (http://www.do-g.de/ ) and has been the Society´s periodical since 1853, making it the oldest still existing ornithological journal worldwide.

It publishes original papers, reviews, short notes, technical notes, and commentaries dealing with all aspects of ornithology.

Special Issues are a collection of articles on timely topics. They are edited by members of the Editorial Board and/or Guest Editors. Typically, two or more Special Issues appear every year. In addition to invited papers, we also accept unsolicited contributions. Links to published special issues can be found here.
