Zoologica Scripta publishes papers in animal systematics and phylogeny, i.e. studies of evolutionary relationships among taxa, and the origin and evolution of biological diversity. Papers can also deal with ecological interactions and geographic distributions (phylogeography) if the results are placed in a wider phylogenetic/systematic/evolutionary context. Zoologica Scripta encourages papers on the development of methods for all aspects of phylogenetic inference and biological nomenclature/classification.Articles published in Zoologica Scripta must be original and present either theoretical or empirical studies of interest to a broad audience in systematics and phylogeny. Purely taxonomic papers, like species descriptions without being placed in a wider systematic/phylogenetic context, will not be considered.
《动物学》发表动物系统学和系统发育学论文，即研究分类群之间的进化关系，以及生物多样性的起源和进化。论文也可以处理生态相互作用和地理分布（种系地理学），如果结果放在一个更广泛的种系发生/系统/进化的背景。Zoologica Scripta鼓励发表关于系统发育推断和生物命名/分类各方面方法发展的论文。在Zoologica Scripta上发表的文章必须是原创的，并向系统学和系统发育学的广大读者呈现感兴趣的理论或经验研究。纯粹的分类学论文，如没有放在更广泛的系统/种系发生背景下的物种描述，将不予考虑。
