Reviewer acknowledgements

The Editor-in-Chief and Associate Editors would like to extend their appreciation to the following colleagues, who reviewed manuscripts for Systematics and Biodiversity during 2014 (published or rejected). Without their expertise, diligence and objectivity, the journal would not be able to maintain high standards of scholarship and science. I am happy to report that the Impact Factor for 2013 has increased to 2.153 and the ranking is now in the upper 31% of all journals in the Biodiversity and Conservation category.
