For outstanding achievements in zoological systematics, phylogenetics, 
faunistics or zoogeography the association "Freunde der Zoologischen 
Staatssammlung M?nchen e.V." has the pleasure to announce the *15th

award was given annually since the year 2000 (see 
<http://www.zsm.mwn.de/events/wiss_preise.htm 
 ><http://www.zsm.mwn.de/events/wiss_preise.htm>
This prize is awarded not only in appreciation of the previous 
scientific performance of the applicant, but the prize-winner will also 
be given the opportunity to continue his/her research work in 
coordination with the Zoologische Staatssammlung M?nchen (ZSM). This may 
be carried out either by visiting the ZSM or by being provided with ZSM 
materials for work elsewhere. The 15th R.J.H. Hintelmann Scientific 
Award will be presented on 17 January 2014 during a ceremony at the ZSM 
in Munich, where the prize-winner has to provide a short lecture on 
his/her research topics.
Nominations may name any young post-graduate scientist, preferably not 
in a permanent position, with outstanding performance in the fields 
mentioned above. The pertaining proposal or application should provide 
an account of the candidate's scientific achievement. In addition, 
curriculum vitae, list of publications, and selected reprints (not more 
than five) have to be submitted (please submit in *printed as well as 
digital form*, e.g. on CD-Rom). The submitted documents remain with the 
awarding association.
Candidates may be nominated by any zoologist; self-nomination and 
repetitive application in several years are also possible. The 
prize-holder is elected on absolute majority basis by a jury appointed 
by the executive committee of the "Freunde der Zoologischen 
Staatssammlung e.V." Depending on the quality of applications the 
association reserves the right to withhold the award in any given year.
