Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to introduce *Molluscan Horizons*, a new journal dedicated
to advancing research across all fields of malacology. *Molluscan
Horizons* is a joint effort of Latin American malacological societies,
led by the *Brazilian Society of Malacology* (SBMa).
A central goal of the journal is to *support and amplify malacological
research worldwide*, with particular attention to fostering visibility,
participation, and scientific exchange involving researchers, collections,
and study systems from the *Global South*. We are committed to building an
inclusive and diverse scholarly community that reflects the full geographic
and biological richness of molluscan research.
*CALL FOR PAPERS:*
We cordially *invite submissions* of original research articles, reviews,
and methods papers for upcoming issues of Molluscan Horizons. Researchers
at all career stages are encouraged to submit, and we particularly welcome
studies presenting new data or regional insights that have been
historically underrepresented in the literature.
Our editorial vision emphasizes:
- rigorous peer review and high academic standards;
- transparency and editorial integrity;
- a growing international editorial team representing diverse expertise
and regions;
- a supportive environment for authors from all career levels,
backgrounds and contexts.
Further information about the journal's scope, aims, and editorial
policies is available here: *https://molluscanhorizons.org/

We would be grateful if you could share this announcement with colleagues,
students, and networks who may be interested in contributing to and
engaging with Molluscan Horizons.
With kind regards,
*Rodrigo Salvador & Marcel Miranda*,
On behalf of the Molluscan Horizons Editorial Team.
