Uittreksel
All Taxa Biodiversity Inventories or ATBI’s face considerable challenges, relat-
ed to sample processing, specimen identification and research outputs. In this
respect “Our Planet Reviewed French Guiana” 2014–2015 Expedition can be
considered a real success. This survey was conducted in the Mitaraka Moun-
tains (south-western French Guiana) in February–March and August 2015 and
involved 50 researchers, including 28 entomologists. During the first fieldwork
period, over 31 different collecting techniques were applied and 401 traps were
operational in a perimeter of ca 1 km² around the base camp. A total of 223 in-
vertebrate samples were gathered, split up into ca 30 dipteran fractions and ul-
timately disseminated among 32 taxonomic specialists. Results on the Diptera
fauna of Mitaraka are presented, with some families considerably exceeding
the species richness recorded during the ZADBI survey at Zurquí (Costa Rica).
