Add remaining Pensoft/ARPHA journals where geo JSON-LD is absent or unverified

[nuest]

A full audit of all 130 ARPHA OAI sets (2026-06-09) identified the journals below as geo-relevant in scope but where schema:contentLocation GeoCoordinates JSON-LD was not found in checked articles, or where there are technical barriers.

These are not included in the current SOURCE_CONFIG implementation (see #92 follow-up). Adding them would require either waiting for ARPHA to backfill the JSON-LD, or implementing a different extraction strategy.

Group A — Geo-relevant scope, no JSON-LD found in sampled articles

These journals publish field research where geographic coordinates would be expected, but none of the checked articles contained contentLocation in their JSON-LD. This may be because: (a) older articles pre-date ARPHA's JSON-LD support, (b) authors don't use the geo-metadata field in the submission form, or (c) the journal's content type doesn't lend itself to point-level coordinates.

Journal	OAI set	ISSN-L	Notes
Frontiers of Biogeography	biogeography	1948-6596	Strong geo candidate; 8+ articles tested, none had JSON-LD
Check List	checklist	1809-127X	Species checklists; uses DOI prefix 10.15560 (not 10.3897)
Aquatic Invasions	aquaticinvasions	1798-6540	Invasion biology; strong geo relevance
Vertebrate Zoology	vertebrate-zoology	1864-5755	Faunal surveys with locality data expected
Fossil Record	fr	2193-0066	Palaeontology; type localities expected
Contributions to Entomology	contributions-to-entomology	0005-805X	Entomology with distribution records
Arthropod Systematics & Phylogeny	arthropod-systematics	1863-7221	Systematic articles with type localities
Silva Balcanica	silvabalcanica	1311-8706	Balkan forest ecology
Vegetation Classification and Survey	vcs	—	Plant community surveys
Rethinking Ecology	rethinkingecology	—	5 articles tested, none had JSON-LD
Travaux du Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle	travaux	1223-2254	Museum natural history series
Plant Ecology and Evolution	plecevo	—	Hosted at plecevo.eu (ARPHA)
Phytologia Balcanica	phytolbalcan	—	Regional botany
Plant Sociology	plantsociology	—	Vegetation surveys
Vegetation Ecology and Diversity	ved	—	Hosted at arphahub.com
Journal of European Landscapes	jel	—	Landscape ecology
Journal of the Bulgarian Geographical Society	jbgs	—	Geography
Soils for Europe	soils4europe	—	Hosted at journal.soils4europe.eu
Geologica Saxonica	geologica-saxonica	—	Regional geology

Group B — Technical barriers

Journal	Issue
IMA Fungus	Migrated to BioMedCentral; the imafungus.pensoft.net site holds only pre-migration articles. Neither Pensoft nor BMC version carries ARPHA-style contentLocation JSON-LD. Would need a separate BMC harvesting strategy.
Comparative Cytogenetics (compcytogen, ISSN 1993-0771)	No contentLocation JSON-LD found despite chromosome studies typically requiring specimen localities. May need different extraction (e.g. parsing dc:description).
Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria (aiep, ISSN 0137-1592)	No contentLocation JSON-LD found in checked articles despite fish distribution scope.
GeoStudies (geostudies)	Very new journal (3 articles total as of audit date); insufficient content to assess.

Suggested next steps

1. Re-check Group A journals in ~6 months — ARPHA may have added JSON-LD support to older articles or authors may have started filling in the geo-metadata field.
2. For Check List: requires special handling due to the different DOI prefix (10.15560).
3. For IMA Fungus: assess whether a BioMedCentral OAI-PMH harvest or Crossref-prefix approach is feasible.

Follow-up: harvesting results for provisionally added journals (2026-06-11)

After the initial audit (which checked a sample of articles per journal), all 30 Pensoft/ARPHA OAI sources were added to SOURCE_CONFIG and harvested. A second pass fetching up to 450 records per journal is currently running to confirm the findings.

13 journals produced 0 geo-tagged works across 450 harvested records each. They have been removed from SOURCE_CONFIG:

Journal	OAI set	ISSN-L	Likely reason
African Invertebrates	africaninvertebrates	1681-5556	Taxonomy/systematics; no field-coordinate JSON-LD
Annals of the Natural History Museum Vienna	anhmw	3061-0206	Museum collections; type specimen localities not embedded
Arctic Environmental Research	aer	2541-8416	No contentLocation JSON-LD in checked articles
BioRisk	biorisk	1313-2644	Risk/invasives framing; no point coordinates embedded
Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift	dez	1435-1951	Entomology systematics; no geo JSON-LD
Journal of Hymenoptera Research	jhr	1070-9428	Taxonomy; no geo JSON-LD
Journal of Orthoptera Research	jor	1082-6467	Taxonomy; no geo JSON-LD
Nota Lepidopterologica	nl	0342-7536	Lepidopterology; no geo JSON-LD
Scientific Annals of the Danube Delta Institute	saddi	1842-614X	Low volume + no geo JSON-LD found
Subterranean Biology	subtbiol	1768-1448	Cave biology; no field coordinates embedded
Zitteliana	zitteliana	2512-5338	Palaeontology; type localities not in JSON-LD
Zoologia (Curitiba)	zoologia	1984-4670	No contentLocation JSON-LD in checked articles
Zoosystematics and Evolution	zse	1435-1935	Systematics; no geo JSON-LD

These are candidates for a future re-check if ARPHA starts backfilling contentLocation JSON-LD for these journals (see Group A suggestions in the issue body above).
