The discussions in Phyllomedusa: Journal of Herpetology mainly cover the fields of Ecology, Zoology, Squamata, Predation and Hylidae. Research on Ecology presented in it focuses, in particular, on Habitat, Larva, Range (biology), Amphibian and Amazon rainforest. The concepts on Zoology presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including Natural history and Reproduction.
Topics in Squamata explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Teiidae and Lizard. Phyllomedusa: Journal of Herpetology centers on topics in Predation, with a focus on Predator.
The journal papers aim to foster the development of research in Ecology, Predation, Zoology, Leptodactylidae and Colubridae. The journal articles feature Ecology research that overlaps with concepts in Population structure. The published articles in Avian clutch size and Nest fall within the purview of Zoology but it also intertwines with topics in Reproductive biology and Visual communication.
The main research concerns discussed in Phyllomedusa: Journal of Herpetology are Zoology, Squamata, South american, Dipsadidae and Lizard. Aside from investigating topics in Oxybelis, Colubridae and Phyllomedusa trinitatis under Zoology, the journal also explores concepts in Attendance. The work on Squamata tackled in it brings together disciplines like Cactus and Frugivore.
The journal focused on works that combine foundational knowledge of South american with components of disciplines like Sexual dimorphism, Erythrolamprus aesculapii, Sexual selection, Polylepis and Mimicry. The study on Dipsadidae presented is investigated in conjunction with research in Amazon rainforest. It is concerned with the study of Lizard and Ecology in general.
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 Phyllomedusa: Journal of Herpetology (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 Phyllomedusa: Journal of Herpetology (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, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 33.33% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 13.33% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 33.33% of all publications and 20.00% 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 opens doors to diverse and impactful career paths, many of which intersect with health and environmental sciences. For those interested in healthcare-related roles, exploring ultrasound tech programs can be a practical step toward a specialized medical technician career. These programs offer hands-on skills relevant to healthcare diagnostics and patient care.
Similarly, students looking to enter the nursing field might consider online ASN programs, which provide flexible routes to becoming a registered nurse. This role is crucial in community health, often overlapping with ecological factors affecting human wellbeing.
For advanced careers focused on administration and leadership within health sectors, pursuing a PhD healthcare degree can equip graduates with the skills to influence policy and manage organizations that address environmental health challenges.
Lastly, mental health plays a significant role in ecology-related community health efforts. Short-term certification through PMHNP certificate programs helps professionals specialize in psychiatric-mental health nursing, supporting populations impacted by environmental stressors.
