    Given a quasimetric space \((X, d)\), if the inequality \(d(x, y)\leq q_1d(x, z)+q_2d(z, y)\) holds for all \(x, y, z\in X\), then \((X, d)\) is called a \((q_1, q_2)\)-quasimetric space. In this paper the author studies the properties of some analogs of the Hausdorff distance in \((q_1, q_2)\)-quasimetric spaces. It is shown that if \((X, d)\) is a complete \((q_1, q_2)\)-quasimetric space and \(d\) is lower semicontinuous in the second argument, then \((\mathscr{M}(X), h)\) is complete, where \(\mathscr{M}(X)\) denotes the set of all \(d\)-closed \(d\)-bounded subsets of \(X\), and \(h\) is some analog of the Hausdorff \((q_1, q_2)\)-distance \(H\) on \(\mathscr{M}(X)\).
