International Congresses of Dipterology
Deceased Dipterists
The International Congresses of Dipterology would like to recognize those dipterists who have passed away in recent years by posting here their names and their dipteran families of interest. The posting of this list on the Internet was proposed by Council during the 6th International Congress of Dipterology held in Fukuoka, Japan, in September 2006. It was prepared by Neal Evenhuis of the Bishop Museum, who maintains a list of World Diptera Systematists. This list will be updated periodically. The date of birth of the deceased is given in parentheses where known.
