Abstract

. Although considered one of the most widespread dragonflies in the world, Pantala flavescens is rarely recorded in Europe and only irregularly observed in the eastern Mediterranean. The first published records of P. flavescens from Cyprus date back to 1957. There are no further published records from Cyprus until 2010 when a single individual and a copula were observed. The latter is also the first record of reproductive activity of the species in the eastern Mediterranean. Since the systematic monitoring of Odonata in Cyprus began in 2013, P. flavescens has been recorded on the island every year with one to 13 records each year from 2013 to 2017, 45 in 2018, and with a significant increase to 146 records in 2019, giving a total of 237 records. Reproductive behaviour of P. flavescens has been observed 19 times on Cyprus and in 2018 we found a larva and a teneral male. Oviposition mode showed high plasticity and was observed in five cases in non-contact guarding behaviour; five times females were ovipositing alone (unguarded oviposition) and oviposition in tandem was seen only once. Our observations are the first proof of successful reproduction of P. flavescens in the eastern Mediterranean.

环热带黄斑蝶是塞浦路斯的常客,并在岛上繁殖(Odonata:Libellulidae)
。尽管被认为是世界上分布最广的蜻蜓之一,但在欧洲很少有记录,只在地中海东部不规则地观察到。塞浦路斯首次公布的黄曲霉记录可以追溯到1957年。直到2010年,塞浦路斯才有进一步的公开记录,当时只观察到一个个体和一个交配体。后者也是该物种在地中海东部繁殖活动的第一个记录。自2013年开始对塞浦路斯的Odonata进行系统监测以来,该岛每年都有黄曲霉的记录,从2013年到2017年,每年有1到13个记录,2018年有45个记录,2019年显著增加到146个记录,共有237个记录。在塞浦路斯已经观察到19次黄曲霉的繁殖行为,2018年我们发现了一只幼虫和一只雄性。排卵模式表现出高可塑性,5例观察到非接触性保护行为;雌性有5次单独产卵(无人看守产卵),只有一次同时产卵。我们的观察首次证明了黄曲霉在东地中海成功繁殖。
