《進化生物學雜志》是一份經同行評議的雙月刊國際期刊。我們從更廣泛的角度優先考慮那些涉及進化過程的論文。我們涵蓋了所有類型生物的微觀和宏觀進化。該雜志的目的是整合分子和微生物進化、行為、遺傳學、生態學、生活史、發展、古生物學、系統學和形態學的觀點。為了發揮其綜合作用，《華爾街日報》偏愛將兩個或兩個以上領域結合在一起的論文。《華爾街日報》尋求理論與數據之間的平衡，甚至是一種張力。編輯委員會反映了該雜志的多學科作用及其國際重點。我們通過考慮來自其他期刊或網站的論文，包括在預印本服務器上發表的論文，以及之前通過ScholarOne或其他評審方案(如PCI、Peerage of Science等)進行的合格評審，提供快速提交服務。手稿格式在最初是次要的。

The Journal of Evolutionary Biology is a bimonthly, peer-reviewed, international journal. We prioritise papers that address the evolutionary process, from a broad perspective. We cover both micro- and macro-evolution of all types of organisms. The aim of the Journal is to integrate perspectives across molecular and microbial evolution, behaviour, genetics, ecology, life histories, development, palaeontology, systematics and morphology.To fulfil its integrative role, the Journal gives preference to papers that bring together two or more fields. The Journal seeks a balance, even a tension, between theory and data. The Editorial Board reflects the multidisciplinary role of the Journal and its international focus.We offer fast-track submission by considering papers from other journals or web outlets, including papers published on pre-print servers, accompanied by previous qualified reviews through ScholarOne or alternative reviewing schemes (such as PCI, Peerage of Science etc.). The manuscript format is of secondary importance initially.
