Letter from ISA president about exclusion of Zootaxa from JCR Impact Factor stats by Clarivate/Web of Science

Great statement by the ISA! @clarivate has placed Zootaxa on an exclusion list, preventing it from receiving IF. Zootaxa is critical: organismnames.com/metrics.htm?pa… Can other societies consider a similar statement? @ASNAmNat SSE Entomological Society of America Society of Systematic Biologists Am Soc Mammalogists

On the negative impact of exclusion of Zootaxa from JCR impact factor stats. Self-citation should be expected when one journal produces almost all taxonomy. Also highlights the issue that taxonomy isn't cited by other fields, though their work relies on a taxonomic foundation.

Please spread new generations of taxonomists to study poorly known groups, with few other specialists. Be praised by the society to be in the field of biodiversity in times of species loss. Then be punished by @clarivate and Web of Science because you are doing the right thing.

Roberto Márquez ISArachnology @clarivate Web of Science Si estamos reuniendo datos para mostrar el impacto positivo de #Zootaxa, te escribo para que te unas a la iniciativa. Ojalá Asociación Colombiana de Herpetología se pronuncie, pero aún no lo sé. Lo que sé es que muchos editores y autores de ZT le están escribiendo a @clarivate para que revalúe el caso.

A petition is being organized to support Zootaxa's effort to get reinstated in @WebOfScience's Impact Factor list: gopetition.com/petitions/zoot…
