Insect Conservation and Diversity explicitly associates the two concepts of
insect diversity and insect conservation for the benefit of invertebrate
conservation.  The journal places an emphasis on wild arthropods and
specific relations between arthropod conservation and diversity.

Key topics covered in the journal will include biogeography, climate change
(and its impacts on distributions and range), conservation genetics, global
biodiversity, integrating conservation science and policy, and long-term
planning and implementation.

Insect Conservation and Diversity is particularly keen to welcome
submissions that are related to the following concepts:

* Understanding the past and present distribution of biodiversity
* Implementing suitable monitoring systems for arthropod populations to
disentangle stochastic and natural variation from that resulting from
anthropogenic action
* Identifying harmful factors influencing arthropod populations and their
cascading effects on ecosystem services
* Seeking strategies to alleviate the action of harmful factors and
restoring ecosystem services.

More generally, the journal is open to submissions within the area of
interest of insect (and other arthropod) conservation and diversity,
covering topics ranging from ecological theory to practical management.
