Overview

Zoology is the scientific study of animals, encompassing their structure, physiology, behavior, classification, evolution, distribution, and interactions with their environment. As a major branch of biology, it ranges from the molecular and cellular workings of animal bodies to the ecology and conservation of whole populations and species, and it draws on disciplines including anatomy, genetics, embryology, and systematics. Zoological research informs human health, agriculture, biodiversity conservation, and our understanding of how life has diversified over evolutionary time. Entomology, the study of insects, is one of the largest and most consequential subfields of zoology, given the central role insects play in ecosystems, pollination, disease transmission, and agriculture. Research published in the International Journal of Entomology engages with these broader zoological themes; work in the journal's record has examined the advancements, problems, and future prospects of experimental zoology and has revisited the development of evolutionary thought, including a study of Charles Darwin's pre-Beagle ideas, his Beagle expedition, and the subsequent development of his theories. This page gathers peer-reviewed, open-access research relevant to zoology and the comparative study of animal life.
