"Dipterists hav always been at the vanguard of taxonomic progress. [...] Dipterists were among the first entomological communities to complete comprehensive regional catalogs, [...] interactive keys to families, and an interactive digital anatomical atlas. [...] And of course the greatest theoretical advances in taxonomy since Linnaeus and Darwin were led by a dipterist, Willi Hennig. Well, they have done it again."

"Dipterists hav always been at the vanguard of taxonomic progress. [...] Dipterists were among the first entomological communities to complete comprehensive regional catalogs, [...] interactive keys to families, and an interactive digital anatomical atlas. [...] And of course the greatest theoretical advances in taxonomy since Linnaeus and Darwin were led by a dipterist, Willi Hennig. Well, they have done it again." ""Diptera Diversity" has many more far-reaching implications for students of biodiversity than the title might at first suggest. Biogeographers, ecologists, ecosystem scientists, conservation biologists, comparative biologists generally, and especially taxonomists - without regard to taxon speciality - are well advised to read and contemplate this landmark volume. The sweeping breadth of topics and issues raised is quite unusual for any single volume. The fact that these are raised in the context of an empirically-rich tome based on a hyper-diverse taxon of worldwide importance is simply unprecedented." [From the foreword by Quentin D. Wheeler]
