Dziędzielewicz was a self-taught expert in natural sciences. Thanks to research and publication, he became an authority on a European scale in the field of insects from the Neuropterida clade, which are currently categorised into a few separate orders. Most of his research works concerned caddisflies (Trichoptera) and dragonflies (Odonata). During many years of his research, Dziędzielewicz made an extraordinary contribution to the knowledge of the world of Carpathian insects. He was one of the most outstanding entomologists both in the history of Polish and European science. He was known as an excellent taxonomist and morphologist, and he introduced a number of new species into science. He collaborated with many European entomologists, particularly with Professor František Klapálek from Prague. He conducted field research on the fauna and distribution of Neuropterida in the Eastern Carpathians in Pokuttya, Podolia, Silesia, the Tatras and in the large part of Outer Subcarpathia. Apart from fauna lists and taxonomic reflections, his works contain many elements from the field of zoogeography and biology of insects. He also promoted the use of Polish generic names, sometimes creating new ones. He described several newly discovered species from the Trichoptera order.}, doi = {10.4467/25440500RBN.19.008.14151}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/rbn-pau-pan/article/karpackie-badania-jozefa-dziedzielewicza} }
