a Special Issue of Evolutionary Ecology, "Dispersal in Small Organisms"
has been extended to May 1, 2025.This Special Issue will appear on
the 50thAnniversary of the publication of D. O. Wolfenbarger's "Factors
Affecting Dispersal Distances of Small Organisms" and will cover dispersal
in viruses, bacteria, plants, fungus, and insects. This solicitation calls
for papers on behavior, ecology, genetics, and evolution that deal with
factors promoting and restricting dispersal. The effects on dispersal
for landscape connectivity, distributions, invasions, host diversity,
and speciation are of particular interest. Publication is expected in
late 2025, but accepted articles will be made available Online First on
an ongoing basis. Pre-submission enquiries are welcome.
