	Announcements Starting since March 2019, the Editorial Board of the journal «Nature Conservation Research» allows authors the option of manuscript translation from Russian to English (only for manuscripts prepared for Nature Conservation Research) and correcting (editing) the English-language manuscripts. For this purpose, Editorial Board can provide contacts of independent translators-correctors in response to authors' request. Then, each author can contact the selected translator-corrector to translate the Russian text or to correct the English text prepared for the journal Nature Conservation Research. Algorithm of authors' actions is HERE.
	Aims The journal "Nature Conservation Research" is one of the first exactly scientific journals, aimed to show the quality and level of scientific investigations that are carried out in the Protected Areas, studies of biological diversity and also biology and ecology of rare and endangered species. The main requirements for submitting manuscripts: a manuscript must 1) either be based on studies conducted (exclusively or predominantly) within Protected Area(s), or 2) be devoted (exclusively or predominantly) to rare and/or threatened species. The main criteria for submitting manuscripts: 1. A manuscript should not have exclusively descriptive character, i.e. it should include analyse of data obtained. 2.
