Palaeoworld is a peer-reviewed academic journal with a focus on palaeontology and stratigraphy research in and around China.[2] It was founded in 1991 by the Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (NIGPAS).[3] The journal has been published quarterly since 2006; prior to 2006, it did not adhere to a fixed publication schedule.[3]
The journal publishes articles from several specialised fields pertaining to palaeobiology and earth science, such as: fossil taxonomy; biostratigraphy, chemostratigraphy, and chronostratigraphy; evolutionary biology; evolutionary ecology; palaeoecology; palaeoclimatology; and molecular palaeontology.[2]
Its editors-in-chief are Shuzhong Shen of the State Key Laboratory of Palaeobiology and Stratigraphy at NIGPAS, and Norman MacLeod of the Natural History Museum, London.[4]
