Where the forest meets the sea, wings become the pulse of the ecosystem. A recent study from Nusa Barung Island Wildlife Reserve uncovers a remarkable assemblage of winged vertebrates—primarily birds and bats—quietly sustaining ecological balance through pollination, seed dispersal, and insect population control. Each flight, each call, is part of an intricate network that keeps this insular habitat resilient. Yet, even in a protected landscape, subtle environmental pressures can reshape community structure and threaten this fragile equilibrium. Curious to explore how these species interact with their environment?

A recent study reveals that the decline of snake populations in Yogyakarta are not only shaped by their natural prey, but also by human-made disturbances such as irrigation canals, pesticide exposure, and habitat fragmentation which pose serious risks to their survival. So the question is... which snakes will adapt??

Most papers don’t get rejected because they’re “bad”

Instead, it’s because they miss the basics:
- Out of scope
- Wrong format; and
- Missing some documents
These usually happens before peer review even starts.

So, if you’re planning to submit to JTBB, be strategic from the beginning:
✔ Align your topic with tropical biodiversity & biotechnology
✔ Highlight research significance clearly
✔ Follow the author guidelines strictly
✔ Keep similarity under the threshold
✔ Ensure all required documents are complete

Because in The Journal of Tropical Biodiversity and Biotechnology two things matter most:
*Scope suitability and scientific quality.*

Get those aspects right, and you’re already ahead of most submissions.
Your research deserves to be published—make sure it gets the chance.
