From the Editor-in-Chief

New Index Editors — Indexing four Mycotaxon volumes per year is no easy task and too much to expect from one individual. Therefore this year we decided to distribute the work among four separate indexers. Joining Karen Gettelman, who has so ably served as sole Index Editor for the past thirteen years, are newly appointed Henning Knudsen and returning Editors Susan Gruff and Robert Dirig. We are pleased to extend an appreciative and warm welcome to our newly expanded crew — effectively at work, if we are to judge from the number of ‘discovered’ errata on the facing page. Formal nomenclatural proposals now in Mycotaxon — Every six years, the International Association for Plant Taxonomy (IAPT) convenes at an International Botanical Congress to discuss and vote on various nomenclatural proposals that have been published in Taxon. Proposals to change the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature are voted on by all IAPT members. Proposals to conserve or reject names are sent to special permanent committees (in our case, the Nomenclature Committee for Fungi), which evaluate the measures before recommending actions to the General Committee, which in turn forwards its final recommendation to the Congress. Beginning with the current April–June 2009 volume, Mycotaxon now will publish, concurrently with Taxon, all fungally oriented proposals. The first two proposals form “book-ends” for Mycotaxon 108 — on pp. 1–4 Props. 016–020 seek to make clear that the Code covers fungal nomenclature (including updating its name to the International Code of Botanical and Mycological Nomenclature) while on pp. 505–507 Props. 048-051 seek to exclude the phylum Microsporidia from the Code. In future Mycotaxon volumes, all proposals will stand together in an end section. Color pdfs now available for extra fee — The beautiful color in the printed Mycotaxon (refer to p. 459) is expensive. Authors who have good color photos but cannot afford to pay the press color page fee now may obtain a separate PDF with color images prepared for author use. The charge for processing a color PDF for Internet use is $40. Contact the Editor-in-Chief for additional information. Mycotaxon 108 — After the summary papers are published in June, we will upload five annotated species lists to join the 45 pdfs already posted on the Mycotaxon web site, www.mycotaxon.com. The 61 papers and 62 new taxonomic names that cover these 522 pages are the result of intensive research by 170 authors and co-authors and assistance from 91 expert peers. The following demonstartes that mycological cooperation is truly international in scope. Three days ago in Oregon, I sent an urgent Email to Spain asking for an important bit of information before converting a manuscript to PDF format. In less than a half hour, a co-author in Pakistan supplied the missing data. The speed of the internet makes it almost easy to serve as both scientist and editor. Almost. Warm regards, Lorelei L. Norvell, Mycotaxon Editor-in-Chief 24 May 2009 520 ... Mycotaxon 108 Four easy steps to successful Mycotaxon publication Mycotaxon’s complete instructions, which were last updated in November, 2007, are posted on the Instructions to Authors page on the Mycotaxon website listed below. Prospective authors should download instructions PDF, expert reviewer comment and submission forms, and helpful templates by clicking the ‘file download page’ link on the instructions page before preparing a paper intending for the journal. Below is a summary of our simple ‘4-step’ publication process. Step 1—Peer review: Authors send a formatted text document with illustration files and Mycotaxon Reviewer Comments Form to two experts for peer review. Authors should (i) make certain that both peer reviewers have Emailed the comment forms to the Editor-in-Chief and (ii) revise their manuscript according to reviewer suggestions before submitting a master text file to the Nomenclature Editor for nomenclatural review. Step 2—Nomenclatural & French language review: Authors next Email their revised master text file (containing footnotes, tables and captions but NO illustrations) to the Nomenclature Editor for accession and pre-submission review. The Email message MUST include the word ‘Mycotaxon’ on the subject line and MUST include names and Email addresses of all peer reviewers. (Manuscripts written in French should also be submitted to the French Language Editor at this time.) Editors will return annotated files with a list of needed corrections to the authors and Editor-in-Chief. Step 3—Final submission: After authors receive their manuscript accession number and make revisions requested during nomenclatural review, they should send (i) a completed Mycotaxon submission form; (ii) separate text files for main text, tables, and legends; and (iii) art files to the Editor-in-Chief . Only text and image files considered ready for immediate publication should be sent at this time. The Editor-in-Chief will try to acknowledge receipt of files within two weeks. Authors are asked to wait at least 14 days before sending a follow-up query, to avoid unnecessary Email traffic near press deadlines or during temporary closures of the editorial office. Step 4—Press preparation: After preparing a press-quality PDF from the author’s text and art files, the Editor-in-Chief sends journal entries for the nomenclatural novelties and author index pages with the PDF proof to all coauthors for approval. Editorial errors are always corrected free of charge, but authors who ask the Editor-in-Chief to correct errors present in their original files will be charged $10 per correction (minimum charge of $40). Payment arrangements of all fees should be made by writing the Business Manager . Mycotaxon frequently updates its webpages and regularly posts abstracts, table of contents, indices, distributional checklists, and revised instructions and forms on its website. We invite all of you to browse our website frequently for updated journal and other interesting mycological news. www.mycotaxon.com BOOKS FROM MYCOTAXON Prices include surface mail shipment (for more books see www.mycotaxon.com/books.html) Mycotaxon, Ltd., P.
