Use WORD template. Use WORD or Excel to create Tables. No restriction for using color figures and photographs. We welcome not only full paper, short paper, review but also a brief introduction of new finding, information and unusual images. Those brief introductions are categorized into gNotes and Newsh, gTaxonomic notesh or gTopicsh. We also welcome preprint manuscript, graduation theses, master theses, and doctoral dissertations. These theses are considered to have already been scrutinized within their respective institutions and will not be newly peer-reviewed. We also welcome commentary which aims to convey the author's perspective on any topic of relevance to aquatic animals. Commentary may be presenting questions and different viewpoints against other manuscripts, introducing novel or rare findings, and proposing new ideas and methods. Commentary needs no abstract and may be short up to 5,000 words with a few figures and tables. This will be reviewed by the Editor and occasionally peer-reviewed by scientists in their field of expertise. Extremely large data set could be deposited to J-STAGE Data (https://jstagedata.jst.go.jp/).
