Just came across the 2007 impact factors for evolutionary biology journals. I think these are only recently available? Anyway no great surprises I guess, but good to see that MBE and Syst Biol are doing so well

Of course impact factors are a tiny part of judging good science, but for those of us in the UK whose careers are periodically assessed by our colleagues using only a hazy interpretation of Impact Factors, stats like this are good to know.
