Sobre la revista Journal information (see below)
La revista HIDROBIOLOGÍA NEOTROPICAL Y CONSERVACIÓN ACUÁTICA acepta contribuciones originales escritas en inglés o castellano sobre la biología de la flora & fauna acuática y sobre la ecología de los ecosistemas de agua dulce – tanto ríos, lagos, lagunas, reservorios, humedales, planicies inundadas como ambientes acuáticos temporales. Además, publica sobre las amenazas que afectan a los ecosistemas acuáticos y las estrategias para dimensionar, prevenir o mitigar estos impactos. Se aceptan también contribuciones sobre conservación, manejo y gestión de las cuencas, con un particular interés en el rol de áreas protegidas y tierras indígenas; además, contribuciones originales sobre el uso sostenible de los recursos acuáticos e hidrobiológicos. Se aceptan artículos de toda la región neotropical, y se estimula contribuciones que tratan la conectividad acuática y el contexto transfronterizo. La Revista publica artículos científicos originales, reseñas, notas e infografías.
- Artículos científicos describen los resultados de un estudio completo e inédito.
- Notas son comunicaciones cortas sobre temas especializados.
- Reseñas son resúmenes de nuestro conocimiento sobre un tema ambiental.
- Ensayos reflejan opiniones personales acerca temas ambientales.
- Infografías son representaciones visuales informativas que resumen información científica

Journal information
The journal NEOTROPICAL HYDROBIOLOGY AND AQUATIC CONSERVATION accepts original contributions written in English or Spanish on the biology of aquatic flora & fauna and the ecology of freshwater ecosystems – including rivers, lakes, lagoons, reservoirs, wetlands, floodplains, and temporary aquatic environments. It also publishes on the threats affecting aquatic ecosystems and strategies to measure, prevent, or mitigate these impacts. Contributions on conservation, watershed management, and administration are also welcome, with a particular focus on the role of protected areas and indigenous lands; as well as original contributions on the sustainable use of aquatic and hydrobiological resources. Articles from across the Neotropical region are welcome, and contributions addressing aquatic connectivity and the transboundary context are encouraged.
The Journal publishes original scientific articles, reviews, notes, and infographics.
Scientific articles describe the results of a complete, unpublished study.
Short communications are notes on specialized topics.
Reviews are summaries of our knowledge on an environmental topic.
Opinion papers reflect personal opinions on environmental issues.
Infographics are informative visual representations that summarize scientific information.
All manuscripts must fall within the scope of the journal, present original contributions, and follow the journal’s guidelines. After the initial review by the Chief Editor, manuscripts are assigned to an Editor or Guest Editor, who initiates the simple blind peer review process.
The Journal published two issues per year . Since 2025, it has also published a special issue per year. Articles are published through a rolling pass system and are published online immediately after acceptance. All articles have a DOI identifier.
The journal is open access. The Journal does not charge authors for their articles. Neotropical Hydrobiology and Aquatic Conservation © 2020 by NHAC is licensed under CC BY 4.0.
