期刊簡(jiǎn)介預(yù)計(jì)審稿時(shí)間：

Founded by John H. Elgood (died 1998—Marimbus Obituaries 21:74-75, 127–128) and Robert E. Sharland. Its purpose is to foster scientific interest in West African birds and to promote ornithology in the region, primarily through its journal Malimbus (formerly the Bulletin of the Nigerian Society of Ornithologists). The journal is biennial and bilingual, unique in Africa.

The NOS publication The Bulletin of the Nigerian Society of Ornithologists accepted papers on birds from other West African countries for a period of time until 17 September 1977 in Liverpool. The NOS Council, wishing to expand the Society's reach, invited the French Discuss this with an ornithologist (eg Claude Chappuis) and decide to "West Africanize" the society and cover the entire West African region. A notice was posted on Bull. NOS 13:85 (1977), and a request for a proposal for a new name for the Bulletin. John Elgood came up with the name Malimbus, a passerine genus almost endemic to West Africa, which was eventually chosen as the title of his journal. The first issue of the new journal in 1979 aptly began with a paper reviewing the genus Malimbe and describing what was then considered a new species of Gola Malimbe.

由 John H. Elgood（1998 年去世——Marimbus Obituaries 21:74-75, 127–128）和 Robert E. Sharland 創(chuàng)立。其宗旨是培養(yǎng)人們對(duì)西非鳥類的科學(xué)興趣，并主要通過(guò)其期刊《Malimbus》（前身為《尼日利亞鳥類學(xué)家協(xié)會(huì)公報(bào)》）推動(dòng)該地區(qū)的鳥類學(xué)研究。該期刊每?jī)赡瓿霭嬉淮危瑸殡p語(yǔ)期刊，在非洲獨(dú)一無(wú)二。

NOS 出版物《尼日利亞鳥類學(xué)家協(xié)會(huì)公報(bào)》在利物浦的一段時(shí)間內(nèi)接受了來(lái)自其他西非國(guó)家的鳥類論文，直到 1977 年 9 月 17 日。NOS 理事會(huì)希望擴(kuò)大該協(xié)會(huì)的影響力，邀請(qǐng)法國(guó)鳥類學(xué)家（例如 Claude Chappuis）討論此事，并決定“西非化”該協(xié)會(huì)并覆蓋整個(gè)西非地區(qū)。Bull 上發(fā)布了一則通知。 NOS 13:85（1977 年），以及一份為《公報(bào)》提出新名稱的建議書。約翰·埃爾古德想出了馬林布斯 (Malimbus) 這個(gè)名字，這是一種幾乎是西非特有的雀形目鳥類，最終被選為他的期刊名稱。1979 年新期刊的第一期恰如其分地以一篇論文開頭，該論文回顧了馬林貝屬并描述了當(dāng)時(shí)被認(rèn)為是戈拉馬林貝的新物種。
