Hence, the Journal operates solely through processing charges we receive from the authors and some academic/corporate sponsors. The handling fee is required to meet its maintenance. Being an Open Access Journal, JZS does not collect subscription charges from readers that enjoy free online access to the articles. Authors are hence required to pay a fair handling fee for processing their articles. However, there are no submission charges. Authors are required to make payment only after their manuscript has been accepted for publication.</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> <div id="proc_fees"> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>Average Article prorcessing time (APT) is 55 days</strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><strong>Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process):</strong></p> <p>Research & Reviews: Journal of Zoological Sciences is participating in the Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process) with an additional prepayment of $99 apart from the regular article processing fee. Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process is a special service for the article that enables it to get a faster response in the pre-review stage from the handling editor as well as a review from the reviewer. An author can get a faster response of pre-review maximum in 3 days since submission, and a review process by the reviewer maximum in 5 days, followed by revision/publication in 2 days. If the article gets notified for revision by the handling editor, then it will take another 5 days for external review by the previous reviewer or alternative reviewer.</p> <p>Acceptance of manuscripts is driven entirely by handling editorial team considerations and independent peer-review, ensuring the highest standards are maintained no matter the route to regular peer-reviewed publication or a fast editorial review process. The handling editor and the article contributor are responsible for adhering to scientific standards. The article FEE-Review process of $99 will not be refunded even if the article is rejected or withdrawn for publication.</p> <p>The corresponding author or institution/organization is responsible for making the manuscript FEE-Review Process payment. The additional FEE-Review Process payment covers the fast review processing and quick editorial decisions, and regular article publication covers the preparation in various formats for online publication, securing full-text inclusion in a number of permanent archives like HTML, XML, and PDF, and feeding to different indexing agencies.</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"><strong>Ethics and malpractices statement</strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top">The Executive Editor or/and Editor-in-Chief of Research & Reviews: Journal of Zoological Sciences is responsible for deciding which of the articles submitted to the journal should be published in current volume of the journal.

We strongly encourage authors to submit tables as .doc format. Tables are to be typed double-spaced throughout, including headings and footnotes. Each table should be on a separate page, numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals and supplied with a heading and a legend. Tables should be self-explanatory without reference to the text. Preferably, the details of the methods used in the experiments should be described in the legend instead of the text. The same data should not be presented in both table and graph form or repeated in the text. Cells can be copied from an Excel spreadsheet and pasted into a word document, but Excel files should not be embedded as objects.</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"><br /> <strong>Note:</strong> If the submission is in PDF format, the author is requested to retain the same in .doc format in order to aid in completion of process successfully.</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"><br /> <strong>Figures</strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top">The preferred file formats for photographic images are .doc, TIFF and JPEG.

Begin each legend with a title and include sufficient description so that the figure is understandable without reading the text of the manuscript.
