Novon,  A  Journal  for  Botanical 
Nomenclature  from  the  Missouri 
Botanical  Garden 


The  mission  of  the  Missouri  Botanical  Garden  is  to  discover  and  share  knowledge 
about  plants  and  their  environment,  in  order  to  preserve  and  enrich  life, 


Novon  publishes  short  articles  whose  primary  purpose  is  the  establishment  of  nomencla¬ 
ture  in  vascular  plants  and  bryophytes.  All  articles  are  peer-reviewed  by  qualified,  indepen¬ 
dent  reviewers. 

Manuscripts  must  fully  state  and  justify  the  reasons  for  proposing  nova.  These  may  include 
detailed  comparisons  with  similar  taxa,  short  keys  to  similar  taxa,  illustrations  to  similar  taxa, 
and  mechanical  nomenclature  reasons,  among  others.  Manuscripts  whose  primary  purpose  is 
other  than  establishment  of  new  nomenclature,  which  usually  are  longer  manuscripts,  cannot 
be  accepted  for  review.  These  include  reviews,  revisions,  monographs,  or  other  papers  that 
incidentally  include  nova. 

Manuscripts  must  follow  the  guidelines  in  the  Checklist  for  Authors.  The  Checklist  may  be 
downloaded  from  the  Garden’s  web  site,  www.mbgpress.info,  or  authors  may  contact  the  man¬ 
aging  editor  to  request  a  copy. 

Novon  will  not  knowingly  accept  manuscripts  that  have  been  simultaneously  submitted  to 
other  journals  for  consideration  or  previously  published  in  some  form  elsewhere.

Novon,  A  Journal  for  Botanical 
Nomenclature  from  the  Missouri 
Botanical  Garden 


The  mission  of  the  Missouri  Botanical  Garden  is  to  discover  and  share  knowledge 
about  plants  and  their  environment,  in  order  to  preserve  and  enrich  life. 


Novon  publishes  short  articles  whose  primary  purpose  is  the  establishment  of  nomencla¬ 
ture  in  vascular  plants  and  bryophytes.  All  articles  are  peer-reviewed  by  qualified,  indepen¬ 
dent  reviewers. 

Manuscripts  must  fully  state  and  justify  the  reasons  for  proposing  nova.  These  may  include 
detailed  comparisons  with  similar  taxa,  short  keys  to  similar  taxa,  illustrations  to  similar  taxa, 
and  mechanical  nomenclature  reasons,  among  others.  Manuscripts  whose  primary  purpose  is 
other  than  establishment  of  new  nomenclature,  which  usually  are  longer  manuscripts,  cannot 
be  accepted  for  review.  These  include  reviews,  revisions,  monographs,  or  other  papers  that 
incidentally  include  nova. 

Manuscripts  must  follow  the  guidelines  in  the  Checklist  for  Authors.  The  Checklist  may  be 
downloaded  from  the  Garden’s  web  site,  www.mbgpress.info,  or  authors  may  contact  the  man¬ 
aging  editor  to  request  a  copy. 

Novon  will  not  knowingly  accept  manuscripts  that  have  been  simultaneously  submitted  to 
other  journals  for  consideration  or  previously  published  in  some  form  elsewhere.

Botanical  Garden 


The  mission  of  the  Missouri  Botanical  Garden  is  to  discover  and  share  knowledge 
about  plants  and  their  environment,  in  order  to  preserve  and  enrich  life. 


Novon  publishes  short  articles  whose  primary  purpose  is  the  establishment  of  nomencla¬ 
ture  in  vascular  plants  and  bryophytes.  All  articles  are  peer-reviewed  by  qualified,  indepen¬ 
dent  reviewers. 

Manuscripts  must  fully  state  and  justify  the  reasons  for  proposing  nova.  These  may  include

Novon,  A  Journal  for  Botanical 
Nomenclature  from  the  Missouri 
Botanical  Garden 


The  mission  of  the  Missouri  Botanical  Garden  is  to  discover  and  share  knowledge 
about  plants  and  their  environment,  in  order  to  preserve  and  enrich  life. 


Novon  publishes  short  articles  whose  primary  purpose  is  the  establishment  of  nomencla¬ 
ture  in  vascular  plants  and  bryophytes.  All  articles  are  peer-reviewed  by  qualified,  indepen¬ 
dent  reviewers. 

Manuscripts  must  fully  state  and  justify  the  reasons  for  proposing  nova.  These  may  include 
detailed  comparisons  with  similar  taxa,  short  keys  to  similar  taxa,  illustrations  to  similar  taxa, 
and  mechanical  nomenclature  reasons,  among  others.  Manuscripts  whose  primary  purpose  is 
other  than  establishment  of  new  nomenclature,  which  usually  are  longer  manuscripts,  cannot 
be  accepted  for  review.  These  include  reviews,  revisions,  monographs,  or  other  papers  that 
incidentally  include  nova. 

Manuscripts  must  follow  the  guidelines  in  the  Checklist  for  Authors.  The  Checklist  may  be 
downloaded  from  the  Garden’s  web  site,  www.mbgpress.info,  or  authors  may  contact  the  man¬ 
aging  editor  to  request  a  copy. 

Novon  will  not  knowingly  accept  manuscripts  that  have  been  simultaneously  submitted  to 
other  journals  for  consideration  or  previously  published  in  some  form  elsewhere.
