The Ceylon Journal of Science is an open access peer-reviewed scientific journal established in 1924 by the Government of Ceylon. The journal was the result of the merger of Annals of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Peradeniya, Spolia Zeylanica, and Bulletin of the Ceylon Fisheries. The journal had several sections, covering different fields, but now consists of a single quarterly publication.
In 1942, the University of Peradeniya took over the publication, and Spolia Zeylanica reverted to a separate publication. In 1958, sections A, B, and C(together covering botany, zoology, and fishery) merged together to form Ceylon Journal of Science (Biological Sciences) while sections E and F (together covering mathematics, physics, meteorology, and chemistry) merged to form Ceylon Journal of Science (Physical Sciences). Section D was renamed to Ceylon Journal of Medical Science in 1965 and is now published by the University of Colombo. Section G (covering anthropology, archaeology and ethnology) ceased publication in 1954.
