Refereeing of papers is conducted anonymously and the identity of the referees is not disclosed.Submission of a manuscript implies that the work described has not been published previously (except in the form of an abstract or as part of a published lecture or thesis), that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere. The publication must be approved by all authors and tacitly by the institute where the work was carried out.

The Journal of the European Mosquito Control Association (JEMCA) is an open access journal. Upon submitting an article, authors have to confirm that they are willing to pay the publication fee (also referred to as “Article Processing Charges” or APCs). The current APC for JEMCA is 800 euro (ex. VAT). There are no additional charges based on colour, length, figures, etc.

Journal of the European Mosquito Control Association

Aims and scope
The Journal of the European Mosquito Control Association (JEMCA; formerly European Mosquito Bulletin, 1998-2012), has been established since 1998 and is intended to provide a forum for information on vector and pest arthropods of public and animal health importance. Besides mosquitoes these also comprise blackflies, phlebotomine sand flies, Culicoides-biting midges, other biting flies, and ticks. Articles to be considered for publication may address these vectors and pest species for Europe and its associate territories, but also for any other region. They may deal with, but are not restricted to, aspects of control methods and tools, identification and taxonomy, distribution, ecology and field studies, reports on surveillance and monitoring, mathematical modelling and risk assessment, as well as applied research on biology and pathogen transmission.

JEMCA is an Open Access, peer-reviewed, online journal published by De Gruyter Brill and overseen by the European Mosquito Control Association. JEMCA follows the COPE (Committee Of Publishing Ethics) Core Practices.
