20 years of Fottea journal
Publishing of the Fottea journal has been initiated by its editor Aloisie Poulíčková (Palacký University in Olomouc) in 2001. Its history is tied closely to the history of the Czech Phycological Society, which split from the Czech Botanical Society in 2002 following the leadership of Tomáš Kalina (Charles University in Prague). First six volumes (named Czech Phycology) were thus published as the Bulletin of the Phycological Section of the Czech Botanical Society (2001) and the Bulletin of the Czech Phycological Society (since 2002).
In 2006, the general meeting of the Czech Phycological Society supported a proposal by the editor to make changes which led to an increase in quality and international impact of the journal. These changes included international editorial board, A4 format, new cover design and new name Fottea, in honour of Czech phycologist Bohuslav Fott (Charles University in Prague).
