List of dipterologists - from L to M

A list of dipterologists (researchers of Diptera insects), who made a more or less significant contribution to the development of dipterology , described at least one new species according to the Linnaean system. The list was compiled in 2010 by Neil L. Evenhuis using the well-known database Biosystematic Database of World Diptera (BDWD, 1994–2008; Thompson 2010). In 2013, an updated list of the database Authors of fly names ^[1] . Naturally, it is incomplete and requires clarification and addition, first of all, at the expense of Russian-speaking dipterologists. Most of the listed dipterologists, strictly speaking, were not taxonomists. They were more interested in ecology, biology, genetics of dipterans, etc.

The list is compiled according to the Latin alphabet in the following order: Last name, first name or initial, birth and death years (if known) [or years of scientific activity], country of residence. The original spelling of names for dipterologists, printed in non-Latin editions (including those using Cyrillic), is also given.
