1. SCOPE AND AIMS Philosophical Transactions series B is published monthly, in A4 double-column format. Normally, issues containing the reports of discussion meetings alternate with those contain- ing submitted papers. The Society aims to accept or reject within one month of receipt, and to publish accepted papers within six months of receipt. Papers exceeding 25000 words will only occasionally be accepted: prior consultation with the Editorial Office is recommended before submission of such papers. There are no page charges. Papers must be in English.
2. EDITORIAL AND PRODUCTION PROCEDURE Each paper received by the Royal Society is sent to referees; if their reports are favourable and the paper is accepted, authors are advised of any changes required. The Society encourages referees to report expeditiously, and will inform authors of the progress of the paper. However, should authors not receive a report within six weeks, they may contact the Editorial Office.
The paper is prepared for the printers once the authors have submitted a definitive version after acceptance. The paper is then sent to the printers, who prepare a proof for checking by the authors. Upon return of the authors' proof to the Editorial Office the corrections requested are checked, and the paper then goes to press. Any delays in submitting revised typescripts or in returning marked proofs will delay publication. Authors should respond as rapidly as possible so that the schedule for publishing their papers can be adhered to.
3. SUBMISSION Submitted papers must not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere. In order to give the Royal Society authority to deal with matters of copyright, authors will be asked to assign to the Society the copyright in any article published in the journal. In assigning copyright, authors will not be forfeiting the right to use their original material elsewhere subsequently. This may be done without seeking permission and subject only to normal acknowledgement to the journal. However, it would be appreciated if authors would inform the Society in this event.
Papers may be submitted (i) to the Editor or (ii) direct to the Editorial Office, the Royal Society, 6 Carlton House Terrace, London SW1Y 5AG. When sending their papers authors may, if they wish, suggest suitable referees, but such suggestions will not necessarily be adopted.
Three copies (double-sided) of the - typescript and all figures should be sent; in the case of papers where there are photographs as well as line drawings, the copies of the photographs should preferably be prints, but photocopies for the use of referees are acceptable provided that they show the features described in the paper. The address, telephone number and fax number of the author who will check proofs should be clearly indicated.
4. TYPESCRIPT Papers should be submitted initially as typescripts. After a paper has been accepted, and, if necessary, revised type-
scripts have been sent, authors should submit the final version both on floppy disk (MS-DOS format only) and as a typescript.
Typescripts should be double-spaced, with both margins at least 3 cm, and with all sheets numbered in sequence and securely clipped together. Papers should be concisely writ- ten. Each paper must have an abstract (not exceeding 800 words or 5 % of the length of the paper, whichever is the less) on separate sheets, and a separate title-page giving the names of the authors and the address or addresses where the work was done. A short title for page-headings should be given on the title page. Legends of figures numbered in sequence as they are to appear in the paper should be given, in double spacing, beginning on a separate sheet at the end of the paper.
Papers describing experiments with vertebrate animals will be accepted only if the procedures used are clearly described and conform to the British Home Office regula- tions for avoiding unnecessary suffering to the animals.
5. ILLUSTRATIONS Line drawings and half-tone illustrations should be prepared so that they are suitable for reduction to single or double column width (80 or 167 mm respectively). The normal text area is 167 mm x 253 mm, but in exceptional cases the area available for figures can be increased to 182 mm x 257 mm. Half-tone illustrations will be printed within the text. Where half-tone illustrations or line drawings are mounted on card, the card should be flexible.
Labelling should be added to originals of line illustrations before submission if authors have the facilities to produce lettering of suitable quality and size, allowing for reduction during publication. Half-tone originals should be supplied lettered; examples of suitably lettered half-tones are shown overleaf. Light and electron micrographs must have a scale bar. Every copy of the typescript should be supplied with labelled copies of the figures.
Authors should indicate on an overlay any areas or subjects within a half-tone requiring critical reproduction. Authors' suggestions for reduction factors are welcomed, subject to the constraints of the production process.
6. STYLE Papers must conform to the style of the Philosophical Transactions series B in the way in which the headings and sub-headings of separate sections are arranged and the references are cited and listed. The International System of Units (SI) should be used wherever possible. Spelling is that of the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary. Papers that have not been carefully checked by the authors before submission will be returned.
7. PROOFS AND OFFPRINTS A single proof only will be sent to authors for checking. Excessive authors' alterations made on the proof (other than corrections to errors made by the printer) will be charged to authors. Fifty free offprints will be provided; additional offprints may be ordered on the offprint order form, which is sent out with the proof.

Proceedings: series B publishes original papers in all aspects of the biological sciences, including those of an interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary nature. Papers up to 4000 words long are welcomed, particularly announcements of important new developments in biology. Reviews containing original and interesting ideas, and criticisms of papers already published, are also invited. Papers will be published rapidly (normally within three months of receipt).
Future issues of the journal will include the papers listed below.
