Herpetological Journal aims to foster the development of research in Ecology, Zoology, Habitat, Lizard and Predation. Herpetological Journal tackles issues in Ecology, particularly in the topics of Amphibian, Reproduction, Avian clutch size, Range (biology) and Body size. The journal focused on Zoology research but expanded to cover Bufo.
Bufo research presented falls under the umbrella topic of Toad.
The most cited papers aim to foster the development of research in Ecology, Zoology, Habitat, Lizard and Predation. Most of the works presented in the most cited papers deal with Ecology but they intersect with the subject of Biological dispersal. The journal papers address concerns in the field of Zoology by exploring it in line with topics in Hatching which intersect with Yolk subjects.
Herpetological Journal investigates studies in Zoology, Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Habitat and Viperidae. The study on Zoology featured in the journal expounds on the topic of Lizard in particular. Ecology research discussed connects with the study of Selection (genetic algorithm).
The presented research on Evolutionary biology deals specifically with Pelophylax but it also addresses topics in Mark and recapture and Photo identification. Herpetological Journal explores issues in Habitat which can be linked to other research areas like Agriculture, Sight, Toad, Reproduction and Plateau. It addresses concerns in Viperidae which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as National park, Age structure, Vipera ammodytes and Nose.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Herpetological Journal (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Herpetological Journal (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 96.77% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 0.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 100.00% of all publications and 0.00% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2021)Studying Ecology and Evolution in the USA opens doors to diverse career opportunities, often requiring specialized knowledge in related fields. For those interested in integrating biological science with healthcare, exploring programs like ultrasound tech school can be a valuable pathway. This field combines anatomy, physiology, and technology, relevant to ecological studies in biological monitoring.
Similarly, interdisciplinary skills can be enhanced through online associate nursing programs, which provide foundational healthcare training, often vital for ecological health assessments and wildlife rehabilitation roles.
For advanced career preparation, especially in administration and leadership within ecological research institutions or healthcare-linked environmental organizations, a doctorate healthcare administration can pave the way for greater impact and innovation management skills.
Additionally, short certificate programs such as the shortest pmhnp program offer the flexibility to upskill quickly, which can be useful for professionals blending ecological knowledge with mental health expertise focused on human-environment interactions.
