75年来，北美西部博物学家(前大盆地博物学家)发表了有关北美西部生物自然史的研究。从最北部的加拿大和阿拉斯加到南部的墨西哥，从密西西比河到太平洋，北美西部包括了无与伦比的多样性的土地:炎热和寒冷的沙漠，郁郁葱葱的山谷，高耸的山脉，河流和小溪，沙滩，冻土带，被风吹过的山脊，碱地，宁静的森林，和似乎无穷无尽的空间。目的:多年来，《自然》杂志已牢固地确立了自己作为一个论坛的地位，报道有关自然历史主题和研究方法的原创研究，包括描述性和分析性的研究。我们的目标不仅是继续，而且是扩大这一出版传统。范围:北美西部博物学家既不限制也不偏爱生物学领域的手稿。每个问题都从不同学科(如生态学、种群动力学、行为学、系统学、解剖学和生理学)的角度来对待不同的分类群。

For more than 75 years, the Western North American Naturalist (formerly Great Basin Naturalist) has published research pertaining to the biological natural history of western North America. From northernmost Canada and Alaska to southern Mexico, and from the Mississippi River to the Pacific Ocean, western North America encompasses land of incomparable variety: hot and cold deserts, lush valleys, towering mountains, rivers and streams, sandy beaches, frozen tundra, windswept ridges, alkali flats, tranquil forests, and seemingly endless space.Aims: Over the years the journal has firmly established itself as a forum for reporting original research on natural history topics and research methods, both descriptive and analytical. Our goal is not only to continue but to expand this publishing tradition.Scope: The Western North American Naturalist places neither restriction nor preference on manuscripts within the disciplines of the biological sciences. Each issue treats diverse taxa from the perspectives of various disciplines (e.g., ecology, population dynamics, behavior, systematics, anatomy, and physiology).
