Not only nature is evolving, but also museum journals with a long tradition in knowledge transfer. Founded nearly one and a half centuries ago, in the year 1884, at about the same time as quite some other museum journals around the world (Glaubrecht et al. 2008), the “Mitteilungen aus dem Hamburgischen Zoologischen Museum und Institut” looks back on a quite successful era of publishing important research contributions of scientists at or associated with Hamburg’s Natural History Museum. With new beginnings in many respect after World War II, in the year 1952 a second journal at this museum was founded, viz. the “Entomologische Mitteilungen des Zoologischen Museums Hamburg”. Now, after their founding institution has seen tremendous change over the many decades of its existence, we feel that it is also about time to make a new start with these two traditional journals, evolving them into a new era of scientific knowledge transfer, fusing both “Mitteilungen” from the Hamburg museum into one modern journal.
