Journal of Entomological Society of Iran (JESI) is an official quarterly publication of the Entomological Society of Iran (ESI), founded in 1974. The journal accepts manuscripts from all areas of entomology and related fields to provide up-to-date information about arthropod diversity and develop eco-friendly pest control applications in accordance with internationally approved approaches.
The JESI is devoted to increasing knowledge of insect science, acarology, and arthropod pests in addition to insect systematics and biodiversity, agricultural entomology, forest entomology, medical, urban and veterinary entomology, apiculture, sericulture, insect biology, insect ecology, insect physiology and behavior, plant resistance to insects, vectors of plant pathogens, biological control, insect pathology, molecular entomology, pesticide toxicology, and integrated pest management. Manuscripts from other groups of arthropods with significant roles in agriculture or the environment are welcomed. Moreover, interdisciplinary studies with strong entomological views are welcomed.

About Publisher (owner)
The Entomological Society of Iran was established in 1969 to develop and advance the science of entomology in Iran. This society is one of the oldest non-governmental organizations and one of the largest specialized societies in Iran and the region. It currently has 1,500 members in 4 groups: regular members (experts), students, honorary members, and legal members (institutions, organizations, and companies). The board of directors members, elected by the general assembly, constitute the society's executive board. The society's primary mission is to establish connections between entomologists and scientists in Iran, the region, and the world for cooperation in educational and research fields.
The Entomological Society of Iran organizes and holds numerous national and international conferences for entomologists in institutions and universities of the country. Through this, it provides appropriate opportunities for members, scientists, and interested organizations to exchange views and information on the latest scientific findings and advances in various branches of pure and applied entomology, including biological control, insect pathology ecology, physiology, toxicology, pathology, insect classification and medical and veterinary entomology.
The Entomological Society of Iran publishes two international journals:
Journal of Entomological Society of Iran and Journal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics.
Submission and publication fee
All journal contents are free of charge online, without a prior subscription, and remain accessible from the first issue, which dates back to September 1972.
