Dear colleagues,

The end of 2010 is approaching fast and we would like to take this opportunity to remind all potential participants to preregister for the 18th International Symposium on Chironomidae, 4-6 July in Trondheim, Norway.

For preregistration see: http://zootron.felles.ntnu.no/snRegistration/Fjaermygg2010.aspx.

Preregistration will help us to plan the event and ensure that updates and information on the symposium reach all that are interested. Preregistration will close in the end of December.

For news on the symposium, please visit our website: http://www.ntnu.no/vitenskapsmuseet/latest-news.

Looking forward to see you in Trondheim

The symposium committee

Dear colleagues,

This year's issue of the Chironomus Newsletter on Chironomidae Research has now been published and can be downloaded from the journal website http://www.ntnu.no/ojs/index.php/chironomus.

The newsletter was delayed for several reasons, but we hope that you will find the articles and news interesting reading.

Thanks to all authors for their contributions!!

Best regards

Slowly but diligently, -- and now I have ca. 140 pages of paperless articles. Some are based on new finds of dipterans made by the members of Diptera.Info.

I am glad to invite you to be the authors of the UEF!
