Revista Colombiana de Entomología (RCdE) is an open access journal, published online with a continuous periodicity (semiannual). RCdE publishes original research articles, essays, scientific notes, book reviews and obituaries related to the area of insect science in English and Spanish.

The journal focuses on papers in the area of entomology and related fields such as biodiversity, ecology, agriculture, human, veterinary and forensic medicine, physiology, systematics and taxonomy, biogeography and genetics that fall within the following topics:

  • Agricultural entomology.
  • Ecology and behavior.
  • Insect growth and development.
  • Insect anatomy and insect physiology.
  • Systematic entomology.
  • Medical, veterinary and forensic entomology.
  • Microbiology and molecular entomology.
