IBIS – author guidelines
Aims and scope
IBIS publishes original papers, reviews, short communications and Forum articles reflecting the forefront of international research activity in ornithological science, with special emphasis on the behaviour, ecology, evolution and conservation of birds.
IBIS publishes most papers as ‘accepted manuscripts’ online seven days after acceptance and as EarlyView (final formatted version) four weeks after acceptance, and most accepted papers appear in the next available issue. Review and Forum articles are not published as ‘accepted manuscripts’ but are published fully formatted and free to access as EarlyView four weeks after acceptance.
Published continuously since 1859, IBIS was the world’s first dedicated ornithology journal, establishing itself as the journal of record for many regions in the 19th Century, and remains one of the highest impact factor journals in ornithology.
More information about IBIS can be found here.
Please see a recent issue of IBIS to get a better feel for the types of papers we publish.
IBIS follows IOC World Bird Names for taxonomy and nomenclature.
Conservation Evidence
For conservation related studies IBIS strongly encourages authors to consult the Conservation Evidence website. This site collects, curates, and summarises tests of conservation interventions. Researchers are encouraged to use this resource when planning research involving conservation interventions and to check the site for previous published studies in your relevant field. Further information on how this resource can be found in Sutherland et al. 2020.
Types of Papers
Papers are published under 4 headings:
Original Papers
These are full length papers, which make up the main part of each issue. Papers focus on empirical and theoretical research in all areas of ornithology. They are limited to 7000 words, excluding references and figure legends. An abstract is required. There are no page charges, but there is a fee for the use of colour in the print version of the journal (see below).
Short Communications
These are limited to 2500 words, excluding references and figure legends, and no more than four display items (tables/figures). A Short Communication is suitable for notes on methodology or equipment, or for work based on small sample sizes. A four sentence abstract is required. There are no page charges, but there is a fee for the use of colour in the print version of the journal (see below).
Reviews (free access)
All our Review papers are free-to-view, and offer authors fast-tracking and free colour printing. There is no word limit. If you have an idea for a Review, please email our Reviews Editor. We particularly encourage PhD students and their supervisors to consider whether the introductory chapters of their thesis might make useful Review papers. Review papers tend to be well cited and downloaded. See here for some of our recent Review papers.
Forum articles (free access)
Forum articles offer authors an opportunity to discuss opinions, raise issues or review areas in avian science likely to be of interest to IBIS readers outside the formal structures of a scientific paper. They cover a wide range of subjects, related to ornithology including science, policy, conservation and management. These articles are free-to-view and attract a great deal of interest. Colour page charges apply to the print version.
An Open Access option is available on all classes of paper on payment of the appropriate licence fee (see below).
Submission Policy
Submissions are made online via ScholarOne (S1). This enables the quickest possible review of manuscripts. Submission is considered on the condition that manuscripts are previously unpublished, are not offered simultaneously elsewhere, and that all contributors have read and approved the content.
IBIS will consider for review articles previously available as preprints on non-commercial servers such as ArXiv, bioRxiv, psyArXiv, SocArXiv, engrXiv, etc. Authors may also post the submitted version of their manuscript to non-commercial servers at any time. Authors are requested to update any pre-publication versions with a link to the final published article.
Authors of articles published in Wiley journals are permitted to self-archive the submitted (preprint) version of the article at any time, and may self-archive the accepted (peer-reviewed) version after an embargo period of 12 months. You will find more information on self-archiving here.
Submitted manuscripts will be acknowledged automatically and assigned a unique manuscript number, which must be quoted in correspondence. Manuscripts are refereed, although the journal reserves the right to reject manuscripts without review.
We aim to get 90% of manuscripts a first decision within 8 weeks of submission.
Note that IBIS operates double blind review.

Author contributions
For all articles, the journal mandates the CRediT (Contribution Roles Taxonomy), for more information please see Wiley Author Services.
ORCiD
IBIS requires the submitting author (only) to provide an ORCID iD when submitting their manuscript. You can create an ORCID iD and associate it with your account at the time of submission. You will find more information on ORCID at https://olabout.wiley.com/WileyCDA/Section/id-828034.html
Ethics
IBIS is a member of and subscribes to the principles of the Committee on Publication Ethics. Submitted work must comply with the BOU’s Ethical Policy which can be read here. IBIS also expects authors to follow good practice in publication ethics, as outlined here.
Work carried out under license must report the license number. A photocopy of relevant research licenses must be scanned and uploaded with your submission.
Conflict of interest
IBIS requires that all authors disclose any potential sources of conflict of interest. Any interest or relationship, financial, or otherwise that might be perceived as influencing an author’s objectivity is considered a potential source of conflict of interest. All potential conflicts, directly or indirectly relevant to work described in the author’s manuscript, must be disclosed.
Potential sources of conflict of interest include but are not limited to patent or stock ownership, membership of a company board of directors, membership of an advisory board or committee for a company, and consultancy for or receipt of speaker’s fees from a company.
The existence of a conflict of interest does not preclude publication in this journal.
It is the responsibility of the corresponding author to review this policy with all authors and to collectively list in the cover letter to the Editor, in the manuscript (under the Acknowledgment section), and in the online submission system ALL pertinent commercial and other relationships. If the authors have no conflict of interest to declare, they must also state this at submission.
Open Access
Papers can be retrospectively made Open Access.
OnlineOpen is available to authors of primary research articles who wish to make their article available to non-subscribers upon publication, or whose funding agency requires grantees to archive the final version of their article. With OnlineOpen, the author, the author’s funding agency or the author’s institution pays a fee to ensure that the article is made available to non-subscribers via Wiley Online Library. You can find details on fees here. The article is also deposited in the funding agency’s preferred archive. The full list of terms and conditions can be found here.
Any authors wishing to send their paper OnlineOpen will be required to complete the payment form available here.
Prior to acceptance there is no requirement to inform an Editorial Office that you intend to publish your paper OnlineOpen as all OnlineOpen articles are treated in the same way as any other article. They go through the Journal’s standard peer-review process and will be accepted or rejected based on their own merit.
You can find more information on Open Access here.
Registration of DNA sequences
DNA sequences published in IBIS should be deposited in the EMBL/GenBank/DDJB Nucleotide Sequence Databases. An accession number for each sequence should be included in the manuscript.
Copyright transfer agreement form
If your manuscript is accepted, the author identified as the formal corresponding author for the manuscript will receive an email prompting them to login into Author Services where via the Wiley Author Licensing Service (WALS) they will be able to complete the copyright transfer agreement form on behalf of all authors on the manuscript.
You will find more information on this here.
Accepted Articles
‘Accepted Articles’ have been accepted for publication and undergone full peer review but have not been through the copy editing, typesetting, pagination and proofreading process. Accepted Articles are published online a few days after final acceptance, appear in PDF format only (without the accompanying full-text HTML) and are given a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), which allows them to be cited and tracked. The DOI remains unique to a given article in perpetuity. More information about DOIs can be found online here. Given that Accepted Articles are not considered to be final, please note that changes will be made to an article after Accepted Article online publication, which may lead to differences between this version and the Version of Record.
The Accepted Articles service has been designed to ensure the earliest possible circulation of research papers after acceptance.
Accepted articles will be indexed by PubMed; therefore the submitting author must carefully check the names and affiliations of all authors provided in the cover page of the manuscript, as it will not be possible to alter these once a paper is made available online in Accepted Article format. Subsequently the final copyedited and proofed articles will appear either as Early View articles in a matter of weeks or in an issue on Wiley Online Library, the link to the article in PubMed will automatically be updated.
Article tracking
Online production tracking is available for your article through Wiley Blackwell’s Author Services.
Once it has been accepted, Author Services enables authors to track their article through the production process to publication online and in print.
Proofs and offprints
Proofs will be available as a PDF to download from our e-proofing website. Full instructions will be sent via email notification when the proof is ready for collection.
Free access to the final PDF offprint will be available via Author Services only.
Archiving policy
Unless specifically requested at submission, the publisher will dispose of all hard copy or electronic material submitted two months post publication.
Promoting your paper
The BOU actively promotes papers in IBIS. In addition to e-alerts via the IBIS website we carry highlights of each issue on the BOU website, with featured papers also included in our e-newsletters. All IBIS papers also feature on Twitter (@IBIS_journal), Facebook (facebook.com/IBISjournal) and Instagram (@IBIS_journal).
We also feature papers from IBIS on the BOU blog. We encourage authors to write a blog as this is a fantastic opportunity to promote your research and the paper in a style and language that is more accessible to a wider audience. This should take the form of a non-technical summary of your paper, or an interesting story from the fieldwork that led up to the paper, in fact anything related to your paper. You can include photos, graphics and links to any online videos or sound files. Blog posts should be no longer than 700 words. Ibis authors get priority access to the BOU blog.
The BOU has produced an author self-promotion toolkit where you will find lots of helpful information on how to promote your work.
