Résumé
This editorial accompanies the launch of
BMC Zoology
, a new open access, peer-reviewed journal within the
BMC
series that considers manuscripts on all aspects of zoology.
BMC Zoology
will increase and disseminate zoological knowledge through the publication of original research, methodology, database, software and debate articles. With the launch of
BMC Zoology
, the
BMC
series closes a gap in its portfolio of subject-specific research journals and is now able to cover all aspects of animal research together with
BMC Ecology
,
BMC Evolutionary Biology
and
BMC Veterinary Research
.
