If you are interested in de Meijere it probably is, otherwise I doubt it. B)

It actually nothing more than a list of species described by De Meijere, notes on the type material and taxonomical and nomenclatural notes. Not really for an average entomologist.

Dear Paul, you wrote:

A list of species is accessible online. I am interested in taxonomical and nomenclatural notes regarding Dolichopodidae, if they are present. Is it possible to get copies of pages with such notes?

Hmm, I think all taxa are arranged alphabetically by species name (not family), so that would be quite some searching that I would have to do. I'll look into it.
