INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTRIBUTORS

Scientific research reports, notes, review papers, bibliographies, and book reviews in anthropology, biology, and related fields are accepted on the basis of their originality and their pertinence to Micronesia and the adjacent Pacific areas. Descriptions of new species will be considered formal papers, no matter how short; information on range extensions will be considered notes, no matter how long. The manuscripts must be written in En­glish, but a summary in another language is acceptable.

Each manuscript will be reviewed by at least two members of the Editorial Board or by specialists other than board members in whose field the paper lies.

Manuscripts should be sent via airmail to The Editor, The Marine Laboratory, Uni­versity of Guam, UOG Station, Mangilao, Guam 96923, U.S.A. The original and two clear copies of text and artwork are required; the original will be retained in the editorial office while the copies are sent out for review.

Authors must follow the guidelines printed in the June issue (from 1990), or available from the Editor. Papers which deviate from the required format may be returned for revi­sion before review.
