Dear All - I am writing an editorial for a journal, and I'd like to make 
a comment about the trend in the number of biology/ecology journals over 
say the past 20-30 years.  I've heard from some people that the number 
has actually gone down (consolidation, extinction, etc.), but my 
suspicion is that the number has gone up dramatically.  However, I can't 
find a good source for these data, if they exist.
    Does anyone know of any article or data on the speciation of 
journals in recent decades?  And in particular, biology/ecology oriented 
journals (not medical).
Thanks!
Howie Neufeld
