Palaeontologia africana is the journal of the Evolutionary Studies Institute of the University of the Witwatersrand. The journal is fully open-access, electronic only, and its full archive and all new articles are freely available here, at the Wits Dspace repository. Our citations have been steadily increasing (see right, courtesy of Scimago) since the switch to open-access.


The journal has been supported for the last ten years by the Palaeontological Scientific Trust (PAST).
