Arthropod Structure & Development Style

I'd like to put in a style request for Arthropod Structure & Development.

The reference instructions are here:
http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/356/authorinstructions#68000

The style seems very similar to Urban Forestry and Urban Greening:
http://www.zotero.org/styles/urban-forestry-and-urban-greening/dev

Differences:
* With multiple authors, the final two authors are separated by "and".
* All words in book/journal titles are capitalized.
* No period is used after "Eds" for edited books.

...that's all I see. Also, FWIW, the journal's instructions show no space before the year for journal articles, but I believe this is an error: the articles I'm looking at from this journal all have this space present, and it's present in the book citations.

Thanks,
Justin
  • I've just put this up as a dependent style to urban forestry:
    - the and for multiple authors isn't actually in published articles
    - the Eds. does have a period in published articles
    - Journal titles should generally be capitalized in the database anyway (as they are proper names) and I'm not sure if forcing title-case for books is a good idea - in the article I looked at there were a good number of non-English publications which don't title case and that would have just turned into a mess.
  • Thanks for looking at this. I hadn't realized that there were as many apparent errors in their instructions as there were! But I'm glad to be able to use this.
