Aims and scope

Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine publishes original research focusing on cultural perceptions of nature and of human and animal health. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine invites research articles, reviews and commentaries concerning the investigations of the inextricable links between human societies and nature, food, and health. Specifically, the journal covers the following topics: ethnobotany, ethnomycology, ethnozoology, ethnoecology (including ethnopedology), ethnogastronomy, ethnomedicine, ethnoveterinary, as well as all related areas in environmental, nutritional, and medical anthropology.

The journal does not consider articles purely focusing on phytopharmacology and phytochemistry. Ethnomedical articles must always include an ethnographical or anthropological perspective on local medicinal or food uses of plants, fungi, animals, and microbiota.
