Abstract
By changing its editorial system, the Croatian Journal of Fisheries is moving toward more rigorous review which will subsequently strengthen its quality and impact. This editorial provides information on the published articles in 2014 as well as a list of reviewers who participated in the review process. Many papers were submitted as short communications to the Threatened Fishes of the World (TFW) series in 2014. To be more useful to the broader scientific community, guidelines about preparation of manuscripts for the TFW series based on The IUCN Red List of Threatened SpeciesTM is provided. Also, after having several years of experience in reviewing, processing and editing of manuscripts, it has been noted that authors repeat the same mistakes. Therefore, we present here a paper that discusses the most common mistakes encountered during manuscript preparation which can result in its rejection.
