Frontiers in Arachnid Science is a multidisciplinary journal dedicated to advancing the field of arachnology.

Led by Field Chief Editor Prof Matjaz Kuntner (National Institute of Biology, Slovenia), the journal welcomes research which explores scientific advances in relation to arachnid species and their extant and extinct chelicerate cousins.

Topics include, but are not limited to:

arachnid diversity, conservation and biogeography
arachnid ecology and behavior
arachnid microbiota and diseases
arachnid morphology, systematics and evolution
arachnid toxinology and biochemistry.

Frontiers in Arachnid Science seeks to join traditionally disparate sections of arachnology within the journal and will consider any high-quality paper covering the diversity, biology, genetics, biochemistry, physiology, ecology, or evolutionary history of these animals, as well as their related lineages (Pycnogonida, Xiphosura).

The journal also welcomes submissions which support and advance the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), notably SDG 15: life on land.

Frontiers in Arachnid Science is committed to advancing developments in the field of arachnology by allowing unrestricted access to articles and communicating scientific knowledge to researchers and the public alike, to enable the scientific breakthroughs of the future.
