Anybody knows if Vol.4 is going to be published soon?
According to the Website, it was planned in 2025, and most chapters seem to be finalized.
Are there any funding issues?

All requests are from the urban area of Vienna, if not otherwise stated.

My Diptera observations (and other living forms) can be found here, and corrections or comments over there would also be appreciated.

Money, money, money... (Abba)...
Please note that although I was the author of a chapter in Volume No. 3, I did not obtain any additional profits in a material sense, apart from one copy of the book. Therefore, I suppose Volume 4 has still not been printed xD.
