Folia Malacologica was founded in 1987 as Scientific Bulletin of AGH University of Science and Technology in Cracow. In 1995, it was changed into a scientific journal of the Association of Polish Malacologists, which has been publishing them regularly as a quarterly since 1998.
Folia Malacologica is published quarterly as an international journal devoted to all aspects of malacology. Original research papers on morphology, systematics, evolutionary biology and phylogeny, molecular genetics, ecology, biogeography, behavioural and development biology, as well as life cycles of all mollusc taxa (terrestrial, freshwater and marine) are preferred, although papers on palaeontology, physiology and parasitology can be also considered for publication. The papers on applied malacology, control of pest molluscs, and aquaculture can be considered if they contribute significantly to general malacology. Moreover, short contributions: short communications, faunistic notes, conference reports, or book reviews are also published.
Folia Malacologica publishes only the authors' original papers which have not been printed elsewhere (except conference abstracts) and are not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Every part of papers, including title, abstract and keywords, is published in English. The language of publications is British English.

SJR
The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from
It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document
This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.
