Dear Mr Beall,
I do not understand. Bentham open in under Bentham Science publisher. Moreover, when you submit to Bentham Science, they will ask whether you want to choose open access option or not. Is it not the same as Elsevier or any other publishers, which have open access option?

Can you send me the URL of the journal you are talking about? There are several with the same title.

Please note that ISI and Scopus do not “accredit” journals.

I think it’s different because of the way they have branded it.

Comment on Report Details Predatory Practices of Two Bosnian Journals by Sinisa Subotic

Wikipedia defines “Red herring“ as an English-language idiom, a logical fallacy that misleads or detracts from the issue. The reply that Prof. Mensura Kudumovic made is a perfect example of that. Instead of trying to rebuttal Prof. Sipka’s research’s findings and conclusions, she goes on a temper tantrum tangent that is completely irrelevant. E.g. whether or not any kind of „genocide“ did or did not happen, and whether or not she was or was not discriminated based on her gender are completely separate issues, none of which carries any weight regarding the main topic of the debate. And that topic is an unethical citation fabrication – Prof. Sipka presented strong evidence for this, while Prof. Kudumovic presented none in her defense, I suspect because she cannot. It seems obvious beyond any reasonable doubt that what happened here was in fact a vicious malversation, which prof. Sipka uncovered.

Like Prof. Kudumovic, I am also from Bosnia, and I was one of the independent research contributors asked by Prof. Sipka to verify his report. And like Prof. Kudumovic, I was also shocked, but for a different reason – I couldn’t believe that someone would stoop so low to actually do such an abuse (that she was arguably involved in). Needless to mention that I did not find any issue with Prof. Sipka’s data or report, and apparently Thompson Reuters didn’t either, which is obvious from their recent exclusion of HelthMed.

Instead of singing „we are poor Bosnians, help us world“ song, and instead of being envious of e.g. Serbia or Croatia for their improving scientific research and publishing status, we should „clean our own yard“ and strive to better ourself academically, which, as it seems, also includes recognizing (and hopefully prosecuting) the corrupt elements…

Dear Mr Beall,
“AMERICAN-EURASIAN JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL & ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES” is included in the Thomson Reuters list.

How come its publisher “International Digital Organization for Scientific Information (IDOSI) appears in your list as a predatory publisher?

IDOSI is listed as a predatory publisher because it meets the criteria for predatory publishers.
The journal you mention is on TR’s monitoring list; this is not an indicator of quality necessarily. The journals do not have an impact factor but it being monitored only.
