Contributions

The "Contributions" section is designed for peer-reviewed, professional scientific papers on original research in the field of paleontology. These include traditional papers on publicly-held fossil specimens and rarely published papers on privately-held fossil specimens (with strict guidelines). Research papers go through a stringent, peer review process (just like other professional journals) to ensure quality, accuracy and proper scientific methodology.
