      Since \textit{T. L. Irwin} and \textit{S. Solecki} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 358, No. 7, 3077--3096 (2006; Zbl 1085.03028)] introduced projective Fraïse limits, they have been very useful for studying continua and their groups of homeomorphisms. So, several authors have been looking for combinatorial descriptions of some continua using these limits.\N\NGiven \(P\subset \{3,\ldots,\omega\}\) the generalized Ważewski dendrite \(W_{P}\) is characterized as the unique dendrite satisfying:\N\N(a) every ramification point of \(W_{P}\) has order in \(P\), and\N\N(b) for each arc \(\alpha\) in \(W_{P}\) and each \(p\in P\), \(\alpha\) contains a ramification point of \(W_{P}\) of order \(p\).\N\NIn the paper under review, the authors construct all generalized Ważewski dendrites as topological realizations of Fraïse limits of suitable categories of finite structures. As an application they prove the following result.\N\NTHEOREM. Let \(P\subset \{3,\ldots,\omega\}\) and let \(Q_{1},Q_{2}\) be countable dense subsets of the set of end points of \(W_{P}\). Then there exists a homeomorphism \(h:W_{P}\rightarrow W_{P}\) with \(h(Q_{1})=Q_{2}\).
