Academic publisher Oxford University Press (OUP) has signed an agreement with The Linnean Society of London to publish their three journals and host their archive of two historical titles. From January 2017, OUP will publish the Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, the Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, and the Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society. It will continue to host archival content from Proceedings of the Linnean Society of London and Transactions of the Linnean Society of London.
The journals cover evolutionary and systematic biology and botany, and the Biological Journal is a direct descendant of the oldest biological journal in the world, which published ground breaking papers on evolution by Darwin and Wallace.
Transactions of the Linnean Society started publishing in 1791, with the other titles starting in the 1800s, so the Society has a long history of being at the forefront of evolution and natural history.
