Shark News aims to provide a forum for exchange of information
on all aspects of chondrichthyan conservation matters for Shark Group
members and other readers. It is not necessary to be a member of the
Shark Specialist Group in order to receive this newsletter.
We publish articles dealing with shark, skate, ray and chimaeroid fisheries, conservation and population status issues around the world; circulate information on other relevant journals, publications and scientific papers; alert our readers to current threats to chondrichthyans; and provide news of meetings. We do not usually publish original scientific data, but aim to complement scientific journals. Published material represents the authors' opinions only, and not those of IUCN or the Shark Specialist Group. Publication dates are dependent upon sponsorship and receiving sufficient material for publication, formerly three issues per annum. Manuscripts should be sent to the editors at the address given on this page. They should be composed in English, legibly typewritten and double-spaced (generally 750-900 words, including references). Word-processed material on IBM-compatible discs or as attached files transmitted by email would be most gratefully received. Tables and figures must include captions and graphics should be camera-ready.
Author's name, affiliation and address must be provided, with their fax number and email address where available. Enquiries about the Shark Specialist Group and submissions to Shark News should be made to the Naturebureau at ssg@naturebureau.co.uk.
