This is an unusual species that merits more study within the context of a wider review of its closest relatives. For now, I agree with Kallweit that this species fits within the broad concept of <i>Tetragoneura</i> Winnertz, a genus in great need of revision. <i>Novakia distincta</i> Fisher is certainly not contained within <i>Novakia</i> Strobl. This species is hereby transferred to <i>Tetragoneura</i> Winnertz. A replacement name is given because the binomial is preoccupied by <i>Tetragoneura distincta</i> Winnertz 1849, an available name.</p> <p> With transfer of this species, the genus <i>Novakia</i> Strobl is restricted to the Holarctic Region.</p>Published as part of <i>Kerr, Peter H., 2007, Revision of the Holarctic genus Novakia Strobl (Diptera: Mycetophilidae), pp. 27-40 in Zootaxa 1554</i> on page 38, DOI: <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/178191">10.5281/zenodo.178191</a&gt

    For close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These two eminent scholars explore fundamental questions about Christian eschatology, moral theory, the purpose of human life, and the promise of human fulfilment. The authors examine Christian teaching on the final destiny of persons, investigating the meaning of God's kingdom, the hope of the beatific vision, and the centrality of moral goodness and divine grace in one's final end. This work is an ideal source for students, scholars, ministers and lay persons interested in basic questions of Christian theology, the philosophy of religion, ethical theory, and Catholic doctrin
