About the Journal

Ameghiniana is a bimonthly, peer-reviewed journal that publishes original contributions across all disciplines of Paleontology, with a special focus on the paleontology of Gondwana and the biotic history of the Southern Hemisphere. Published yearly since 1957, it has become one of the main paleontological publications from Latin America. Ameghiniana has recently broadened its editorial team, reorganized its production process, and increased its frequency to bimonthly, resulting in a significant decrease in turnaround time.
