Abstract
Three hundred and fourteen (20%) of the citations found in Environmental and Experimental Botany, volumes 41-42, 1999, were selected randomly and checked for accuracy. There were 232 errors identified. At least one error was found in 45.4% of the citations. While more than one-half of the citations with errors had only one error, one citation had seven and one had eight errors. There was an increase in the percentage of citations with errors and in the number of errors per citation compared to a 1990 study of the same journal.
