Abstract/NotesThis issue marks the departure of the longest-serving of the current


editors of Geological Magazine, Dr Chris Hughes,

and his replacement by Dr Tim Palmer (University of Wales, Aberystwyth).
The

Geological Magazine has always had a

strong content of palaeontology and biostratigraphy, and Chris Hughes has


efficiently maintained the quality of these contributions

since 1973. He is moving on from his lectureship in the Cambridge Earth


Sciences Department to head the

Associated Examining Board, based in Guildford. The other editors thank
him

warmly for his experienced guidance over

the past 24 years and wish him success in his new post.The editors welcome Tim Palmer, whose appointment from outside the

Cambridge department represents a significant

and deliberate departure from custom. Some 13 years ago, the Magazine


broadened its editorial advice in a major way by

appointing an Editorial Board, most of whose members have come not just


from outside Cambridge, but from beyond the

UK. Our new editorial appointment signals an extension of this same policy.An important advantage of having all the Magazine's editors


under one roof has been the efficiency and speed of communicating

with each other. However, with the Cambridge editors now talking to each


other as much by Email as face-to-face,

geographical proximity has become a less crucial asset. The spread of

Email is changing many other aspects of the

editorial practice and the Geological Magazine office, run by
Jane

Holland, is now on-line at geolmag@esc.cam.ac.uk.

The editors now encourage the use of Email for all business except for


submission of manuscripts, and in particular for

contributors' queries and for referees' reports.
