Acta Theriologica Acta Theriologica is a peer-reviewed scientific journal focused on the study of mammals with a long publication record connecting European research networks such as Poland's academic institutions, collaborations with University of Warsaw, exchanges involving Jagiellonian University, and contributions from researchers affiliated with Smithsonian Institution, Natural History Museum, London, Max Planck Society, and other institutes. The journal has hosted work intersecting field studies in regions like the Carpathian Mountains, the Tatra Mountains, the Białowieża Forest, and comparative studies referencing collections held at American Museum of Natural History, Zoological Society of London, and Royal Ontario Museum.
Founded in 1956 during a period of expansion in postwar European science, the journal emerged amid initiatives connected to institutions such as Polish Academy of Sciences, University of Poznań, and cooperative projects with the International Union for Conservation of Nature and the International Council for Science. Early editorial leadership included scholars with ties to Jagiellonian University, University of Warsaw, and exchanges with researchers from University of Cambridge, University of Oxford, and the École Normale Supérieure. Over decades the title paralleled developments in mammalogy tracked alongside conferences like the International Mammalogical Congress and national meetings hosted by organizations such as the Mammal Society and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Säugetierkunde.
The journal publishes original research on mammalian systematics, ecology, behavior, conservation, and paleontology, attracting submissions that reference comparative work involving taxa described in monographs by authors associated with the Natural History Museum, Vienna, the Smithsonian Institution, and the Museum für Naturkunde. Topics include population dynamics examined in studies tied to the European Commission biodiversity directives and conservation frameworks such as the Bern Convention, morphological analyses compared with type specimens from the Zoological Museum of Moscow State University, and phylogenetic studies informed by methodologies developed at institutions like the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, University of California, Berkeley, and Harvard University.
Published by Springer Science+Business Media and distributed through libraries including British Library, Library of Congress, and national repositories in Poland, the journal operates under editorial policies coordinated by editors with affiliations spanning Jagiellonian University, University of Warsaw, University of Helsinki, and collaborative linkages to curators at American Museum of Natural History and the Natural History Museum, London. The peer review process aligns with standards advocated by organizations such as the Committee on Publication Ethics and editorial governance has interacted with publishing platforms run by entities like Springer Nature and indexing collaborations with institutions such as Clarivate Analytics.
Abstracting and indexing coverage for the journal includes services managed by providers with holdings in databases associated with Clarivate Analytics, Scopus operated by Elsevier, and aggregated listings in catalogues used by the National Library of Medicine, major university consortia such as European University Association, and international consortia including the Research4Life initiative. Bibliographic records appear alongside entries from journals connected to the Royal Society, the Linnean Society of London, and proceedings from the International Union for Conservation of Nature.
The journal has published influential contributions cited in syntheses by researchers at Max Planck Society, comparative faunal inventories used by teams at Smithsonian Institution and the Natural History Museum, London, and methodological papers adopted by groups at University of Cambridge, University of Oxford, and Harvard University. Notable articles have informed conservation assessments referenced in reports by the IUCN Red List, regional management plans coordinated with the European Commission, and taxonomic revisions that affected collections at the American Museum of Natural History and the Royal Ontario Museum.
Acta Theriologica exists in a scholarly ecosystem alongside journals such as Journal of Mammalogy, Mammal Review, Mammalian Biology, Journal of Zoology, and Mammalia, and has influenced research agendas pursued at institutions including Jagiellonian University, University of Warsaw, University of Helsinki, Smithsonian Institution, and the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology. Its long-standing publication record has contributed to training generations of mammalogists connected to European networks, international collaborations with North American museums, and interdisciplinary projects involving conservation bodies like the IUCN and the European Environment Agency.
