Published since 2005. Caucasian Entomological Bulletin (CEB) (print-ISSN 1814-3326; online-ISSN 2713-1785) is an international, peer reviewed open-access, scientific journal. CEB publishes original review papers, research papers and short communications on different aspects of entomology, as well as book reviews. Also the journal publishes papers on Arachnida and Entognatha, but following an agreement with the editor in chief. Faunistic short communications are published selectively, in case of important information for a wide range of readers. Lists of species can be published in the journal only if they contain an important taxonomic information or serious faunal-genetic and/or biogeographic analysis. Simple lists with additions to local faunas and simple check-lists will not be accepted. The advisory editorial board will decide to accept or reject manuscripts with lists of species.
The journal welcomes studies incorporating systematics, taxonomy, morphology, morphological and molecular phylogenetics, biogeography, paleobiology, evolution and fauna of insects, especially of arid and mountain regions of the Northern Hemisphere.
