Two years ago while surveying we found a rather poorly fern that had either fallen or been kicked out of its crevice. We collected it and the amazing scientists Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh were able to extract and grow the spores. Fast forward to now...



Hello Aneta Kostadinova. Thank you for clarifying. I thought it was strange that the IF for CR in Parasitology & Vector-Borne Diseases was so low. But double or even triple accounting of published papers explains it all. How could Clarivate for Academia & Government get it wrong? Is there a way to ask for a correction?

The difference of an IF of 1.7 instead of 2.6 (as it should be) for a new journal such as CR in Parasitology & Vector-Borne Diseases is very significant. I hope it can be corrected!

This great publication has arisen for a collaboration between The Moredun Foundation and our colleagues in Brazil. Hopefully there are many more to come. Thank you Aneta Kostadinova and CR in Parasitology & Vector-Borne Diseases for your efficient management of the manuscript and it is a great to publish with you again
