Australian Journal of Herpetology [SEP] Introduction
The Australian Journal of Herpetology was a scientific journal specialising in herpetology published from 1981 until 1983 with an additional supplemental series released in 1985. The Australian Herpetologists League established the journal as a peer-reviewed periodical and published its first two issues in 1981. Richard W. Wells, a first-year biology student, served as the journal's editor-in-chief, supporting an editorial board of three Australian researchers. In what became known as the "Wells and Wellington affair", Wells took control of the "Australian Journal of Herpetology" and between 1983 and 1985 published three papers without peer review. Co-authored by himself and high school teacher C.
