Thank you Paul. I hope this work will stimulate new dipterists to study Dolis. And thanks to Nikita who has stimulated me to finish this work. By the way, I sent you also pdf (2004) with afrotropical Dolis to publish. This region is of my primary interest and I shall gladly accept any help in order to continue african study. Best regards.
