Participating delegates of the conference realized the need of an international research Journal to cater to the needs of Environmental Biologists and Toxicologists, and the organizer of the conference Dr. R. C. Dalela, was entrusted the responsibility to take the necessary steps. After several meetings, Journal of Environmental Biology was launched on 7^th October 1980 with Dr. Dalela as Editor-in-chief, and was registered with Government of India (GOI).
In 1996, the editorial office of the Journal shifted to Lucknow and the registration was revised by GOI, accordingly. Website (www.jeb.co.in) of journal was launched in 2006 with Open Access facility free-of-charge.
