Slavomil Hejný and Jaroslav Moravec established the journal in 1966 (under the name Folia Geobotanica & Phytotaxonomica), in what was then the Institute of Botany of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences. The journal quickly found its place in the world of botany and plant ecology. The journal’s international editorial board and demanding admissions process ensure a high-quality publication. The journal is included in the Current Contents and Science Citation Index. Folia Geobotanica also publishes special monothematic editions that often stem from activities at international conferences geared toward a specific problem.
