Sclater 1829-1913 a co-founder and editor of Ibis was a well-known and highly productive over 1400 publications ornithologist by trade. He is also remembered for his 1858 paper setting out the faunal regions classification of zoogeography later adopted by Alfred Russel Wallace. He was also secretary of the Zoological Society of London a member of more than forty professional societies at home and abroad and a council member of the Royal Society of London. Assisting him as co-editor of some of the issues was Howard Saunders or A.H. Evans until 1931 when C.B. Ticehurst took over as editor.<br /> Now subtitled the International Journal of Avian Science it is in its present form a peer-reviewed scientific journal which covers ecology conservation behavior palaeontology and taxonomy of birds. For it’s first nearly one hundred years however the journal focused on a more popularistic type of article often introducing species and images to the public for the first time.<br /> <br /> A group of friends mostly wealthy collectors of bird specimens founded the British Ornithologists' Union in 1858 with the primary intent of starting an ornithological journal. The first volume of the journal The Ibis appeared in 1859. Lists of species observed by traveling ornithologists and long catalogues of specimens obtained on expeditions filled the journal. “This random fact gathering on distribution persisted unchanged from 1859 to the 1940s.†In her article entitled “The Ibis: Transformations in a Twentieth Century British Natural History Journal†in Journal of the History of Biology October 2004 Volume 37 No. 3 pp. 515–555 Kristin Johnson points out in a much more complete and professional manner the difference between “popular†ornithology and “scientific†ornithology study of the living bird in its natural environment more on a biological aspect the transition of which occurred post-1940. Meanwhile the articles appearing in the Ibis were geared more toward the popularization of the science and the spread of knowledge of geographic distribution and the habits and patterns of the various bird species.
