About the Journal

Ornis Svecica is an online scientific journal issued by BirdLife Sweden. All contributions are published as open access, available to anyone, and with no publication fee for the authors. The aims and scope of the journal are to provide a forum for full-length or short original research reports, including descriptive ones, and reviews, communications, debate, and letters concerning all fields of ornithology. Ornis Svecica publishes contributions irrespective of the geographic origin of authors and subject, and we welcome submissions not only from professional researchers but from laymen as well. We assume a particular responsibility to offer a process and a forum for the latter, and encourage their submission of results and ideas. The journal language will be English or Swedish with a comprehensive summary in the other language (assistance is offered to authors with insufficient knowledge in the language for the summary).
