Abstract

During the 99 years of its history, the Journal of Comparative Physiology A has published many of the most influential papers in comparative physiology and related disciplines. To celebrate this achievement of the journal’s authors, annual Editors’ Choice Awards and Readers’ Choice Awards are presented. The winners of the 2023 Editors’ Choice Awards are ‘Contact chemoreception in multi‑modal sensing of prey by Octopus’ by Buresch et al. (J Comp Physiol A 208:435–442, 2022) in the Original Paper category; and ‘Magnetic maps in animal navigation’ by Lohmann et al. (J Comp Physiol A 208:41–67, 2022) in the Review/Review-History Article category. The winners of the 2023 Readers’ Choice Awards are ‘Coping with the cold and fighting the heat: thermal homeostasis of a superorganism, the honeybee colony’ by Stabentheiner et al. (J Comp Physiol A 207:337–351; 2021) in the Original Paper category; and ‘Einstein, von Frisch and the honeybee: a historical letter comes to light’ by Dyer et al. (J Comp Physiol A 207:449–456, 2021) in the Review/Review-History category.
