History edit
The journal was established in 1938 as Lloydia, published by the Lloyd Library and Museum,[1] and obtained its present title in 1979.[2] It has been the official journal of the American Society of Pharmacognosy since 1961. Originally a quarterly publication, it became a bimonthly journal in 1975, and has appeared monthly since 1992. The American Society of Pharmacognosy began to co-publish the journal with the American Chemical Society in 1996. In 2008, the journal was hijacked by a low-quality open access journal using the same title. As of January 2016[update], this counterfeit journal was still active.[3]
