An annotated overview is presented of the Diptera recorded during the Bonaire Estafette Expeditie in 2022-2023, supplemented with records from the past years. Prior to this expedition a mere nine species of Diptera were recorded from Bonaire. This current list contains at least 94 species from 24 families.
An entomological research and collecting expedition took place in Mongolia, from July 30 till August 20, 2022.
This three-week excursion in the northeast of Mongolia investigated the insect fauna in a range of habitats across the aimaks of Ulaanbaator, Khentii and Dornod. The habitats included parts of the southern border of taiga forests of Siber...
For the first time, an overview is presented of the species of crane flies (Limoniidae and Tipulidae) known from the West Indies, with their distributions in the area that comprise the islands of the Caribbean Sea between the United States, the Isthmus of Panama, and South America. Of the 258 species of crane flies known from the West Indies, 206 a...
The cranefly (Tipuloidea) fauna of the Western Balkans is still poorly known. In this study, occurrence
data of 77 species is reported, of which two species are newly recorded for Albania, eight species for
Bosnia and Herzegovina, twelve for Croatia, and seven for Slovenia, respectively. A new species, Baeoura
neretvaensis Kolcsár & d’Oliveira, sp....
Limoniidae is one of the most species-rich Dipteran families, with 661 reported species in Europe. Despite the fact that the European limoniid crane fly fauna has been studied ever since Carolus Linnaeus, it is still poorly known.
In this study, we summarise the taxonomic and faunistic studies of European Limoniidae, which described new species and...

Comparing the private collection of the first author with that of the University of Gdansk led to the discovery of three new species of biting midges of the subfamily Forcipomyiinae for the Netherlands: Atrichopogon infuscus, Atrichopogon meloesugans and Forcipomyia crassipes. In addition some nomenclatural corrections to the Dutch checklist are pr...
