Dipterists Forum produces a Bulletin twice a year, containing a diverse mix of articles and news – essential reading for anyone with an interest in Diptera! The Bulletin is edited by Darwyn Sumner with assistance from Judy Webb, and with contributions from many DF members and recording scheme organisers.
DF members receive each Bulletin as it is published, and can download the most recent issues via the membership area. Wherever possible we make back issues publicly available after two years, via the links below (note that these are PDF downloads and some are quite large). Thanks to Darwyn Sumner for hosting many of these on his European Micropezids & Tanypezids website.
