Style Request: Comparative Parasitology

I would be super appreciative if someone could create a style manager for Comparative Parasitology.

Citations in the text follow the “Name–Year” style. Citations in the text:
1. are parenthetical by author and date, e.g., “(Snyder, 1996)”;
2. are arranged chronologically and then alphabetically;
3. use “and” between authors (do not use “&”);
4. use a comma between the author(s) and the date;
5. use “First author et al.” for 3 or more authors (if this is not sufficient to distinguish among cited works, add subsequent authors to each text citation as required);

Some general points of style
● All journal names must be written in full.
● List in alphabetical order by first author’s surname and secondarily in chronological order. Author names should be in bold.
● For any single author or combination of authors that appears more than once, list the full author citation for each reference cited. (Do not replace names with an underscore after their first appearance.)
● Format this section by paragraphs with hanging indentations, using the sample formats provided in the next section.
● Use “em” to separate page numbers, instead of “en”.

And examples can be found at this link, which will download an instructions for authors (pages 8 through 10 have examples): https://www.helmsoc.org/HelmSoc_site/helmsoc/assets/img/COPA_Instructions.pdf

If you need more examples from the journal or have any questions, you can pull my email address from this website: http://www.weinersmith.com/

Many, many thanks to anyone willing to take this on!
