Abstract:
First paragraph: Insect Conservation & Diversity has now successfully completed its first year in print, and we wish to extend our thanks to our Associate Editors, referees and contributors, as well as to our publishers for helping us achieve this milestone. We have all enjoyed the process of launching a new journal, although it has been, and continues to be, very hard work. We have published a variety of papers covering the general themes encompassed in the title of the journal and we hope that you, the readers and authors, have been engaged and intrigued by the papers we have presented to you. We also hope that you have been stimulated to submit your work to the journal. With that in mind, what would we, as editors of Insect Conservation and Diversity (ICD), like to read in the pages of ICD? Of course, top quality papers focusing on insect conservation and diversity and promoting the science of entomology at large are our brief. Needless to say, the topics to be tackled under this umbrella are many! Since it is our privilege to use a small space in this journal as editorial, we would like to take the opportunity to share with our readers our visions regarding what represents timely material for submission to ICD. These are of course, only examples and are not restrictive as to which material may be submitted to and printed in the pages of ICD!
