history
The first volume of the writings appeared in 1873. Initially intended as an internal journal, they quickly developed into an opportunity to present the latest research results to the professional world and the interested public at the same time. Well-known editors also contributed to the reputation. For many years the zoologists Karl August Möbius and Adolf Remane were responsible for the scientific selection and examination of the articles as editors.
The journal is used by researchers to present work of global interest. In 1878, in the 3rd volume, the first description of mitosis by Walther Flemming appeared . Today Flemming is considered the father of cell biology and is recognized as one of the greatest discoverers of biology.
There were many important publications in the scriptures later as well. Names such as Karl August Möbius , Adolf Remane , Karl Gripp, Johanna Mestorf , Berndt Heydemann , Wolf Herre , Fritz Theodor Overbeck , Ernst-Wilhelm Raabe, Alfred Rust and Max Planck can be found several times in the list of authors.
