Furthermore, practical keys are given to accepted species, as well as correct names of, concise synonymies for, and ecological and distributional data.

Extralimital taxa of which occurrence in the Netherlands can be expected on account of their ecology and/or geographical distribution are included in the keys, whereas a concise synonymy, references to selected descriptions and illustrations, and a short diagnostic description are given in textual part.

For various reasons a number of taxa less likely to be encountered in the Netherlands are included only in the keys merely with their author citation and one reference to the literature.;Each volume contains introductory chapters with an extensive glossary of terms and lists of abbreviations of authors' names and bibliographic abbreviations.
