The aim of Studia dipterologica is to promote dipterology. Original papers on taxonomy, phylogenetic systematics, faunistics, biology, ecology, zoogeography and behaviour may be submitted, provided they are concerned mainly with the Diptera. In addition, biographies of famous dipterologists (CVs, Festschrifts, obituaries, bibliographies etc.), reports on dipterological excursions or expeditions, papers on dipterological collections, catalogues and checklists, meeting and congress reports, short notes, and reviews of books with a dipterological content will also be considered for publication. Studia dipterologica is covered by the Zoological Record (BIOSIS©), the CAB Abstracts (CABI), and the abstract journal edited by the Russian institute VINITY (Moscow).

Frequency of publication of Studia dipterologica is yearly. One volume will contain two issues with a total of 300 consecutively numbered pages. The journal format is 17 x 24 cm (Volume 1-19) and 21 x 30 cm (from Volume 20). Languages of publication are English and German. The language quality of submitted manuscripts will be checked by the editors. Authors are reminded to follow the Instructions to Authors (particularly with the reference lists!).
