Nature not to publish article on "global species"

After submitting a presubmission enquiry a few days back, today I was informed by an editor of Nature that they will not publish an article by me on the notion of "global species". "We do not doubt the interest of your study to others working in this and related areas of research", the reply went, but "after consideration, we are not persuaded that your findings represent a sufficiently outstanding scientific advance to justify publication in Nature."

See previous posts mentioning the keyword "global species" and cf. my 2010 article "The global species" (a preview is available via Questia).
