About the Journal

The scientific journal Natural History Sciences (NHS) was founded in 2014 to publish original research in all fields of natural sciences. The journal was historically preceded by Atti della Società Geologica residente in Milano (1855), Atti della Società italiana di Scienze naturali (1859) and Atti della Società italiana di Scienze naturali e del Museo civico di Storia naturale in Milano (1896) and continues their distinguished tradition.

This journal does not apply charge for publication to Authors as it is supported by institutional funds.
