. 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.

It was thought to be confined to high latitudes within or near the Arctic Circle until Belyshev & Ovodov (1961) discovered it at a latitude of 51°45’N in Irkutsk Province in Russia. Since then, evidence has accumulated indicating that the species’ range extends to the mountains of southern Siberia and the northern Khabarovskiy Kray (Kosterin 1992; Schröter 2011). The geographical distribution of the species was thoroughly reviewed by Schröter (2011), who provides detailed and precise maps of its known localities for the northern hemisphere in general, including Europe, Siberia and North America.

Six field trips were carried out in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the Sultanate of Oman in autumn 2010, late winter 2013, spring 2014, autumn 2014, spring 2015 and spring 2016. We recorded 37 species at 87 localities, including new localities for some species of regional interest. Information on all observed Odonata species was recorded including their life stage, behaviour, habitat and water characteristics. Exuviae were also systematically collected. Urothemis thomasi was discovered at several new sites in the Hajar Mountains, the Dhofar and the Al Wusta regions, filling in the gap between the Dhofar and the Muscat area. In addition, new localities for two Arabian endemics: Arabicnemis caerulea and Arabineura khalidi were found, with their occurrence in the Dhofar region extending their known area and demonstrating that A. khalidi cannot be regarded as a strict Hajar endemic. Important differences were noticed in the species composition of formerly surveyed localities, which may be ascribed to habitat degradation through management directed towards human recreation. Lastly, the well-known and diverse zoogeographical influences of Omani and the Emirati odonatofauna are confirmed with a large set of species of African origin in the Dhofar and a smaller set of species of Indomalayan origin visiting both the P.

2010年秋季、2013年深冬、2014年春季、2014年秋季、2015年春季和2016年春季,在阿拉伯联合酋长国和阿曼苏丹国进行了六次实地考察。我们在87个地点记录了37个物种,包括一些区域感兴趣物种的新地点。记录了所有观测到的蜻蜓物种的信息,包括它们的生活阶段、行为、栖息地和水特征。还系统地收集了冲积物。Urothemis thomasi是在Hajar山脉、Dhofar和Al Wusta地区的几个新地点发现的,填补了Dhofar地区和马斯喀特地区之间的空白。此外,还发现了两种阿拉伯特有种的新地点:阿拉比克线虫(Arabicnemis caerulea)和阿拉比神经线虫(Arabineura khalidi),它们在Dhofar地区的出现扩大了它们的已知面积,并表明阿拉比克不能被视为严格的哈贾尔特有种。先前调查地区的物种组成存在重大差异,这可能归因于针对人类娱乐的管理导致的栖息地退化。最后,阿曼和阿联酋齿形动物群的著名和多样的动物地理影响得到了证实,在Dhofar有一大批非洲起源的物种,在P.Lambret、J.-P.Boudot、D.Chelmick、G.De Knijf、É有一小部分印度尼西亚起源的物种。Durand,J.Judas&A.Stoquert 154 Odonatologica 46(3/4)2017:153-205 Dhofar和该地区东北部在迁徙和建立至少临时的繁殖地期间。进一步的关键词。蜻蜓、豆娘、Anisoptera、Zygoptera、阿拉伯半岛、Hajar Mountains、Dhofar、Red List、Arabicnemis caerulea、Arabineura khalidi、Azurarion somalicum、Azuragion nigridorsum、Agriocnemis pygmaea、Paracomphus sinaiticus、Orthetrum ransonnetii、Tholymis tillarga、Urothemis thomasi、Macrodiplax cora。Aeshna grandis和A.viridis的交配207 Odonatologica 46(3/4)2017:207-226 2019年12月1日Odonatologia 46(3/4,26419 Schortens,德国;2 Rasenweg 10,37130 Gleichen,德国;ORCID ID:0000-0002-3655-2304 3 Am Liebrauenbusch 3,26655 Westerstede,德国;2017年7月10日收到;修订并接受2017年9月17日的摘要。我们调查了迄今为止未知的大Aeshna的交配行为,发现交配基本上发生在黎明。随着第一缕晨光,雄性开始进行寻找栖息在以芦苇、灯心草和草地为特征的陆地植被深处的雌性的飞行。记录了在独特的扭转脚跟位置的交配。扭曲的轮子是独一无二的,因为它们不是在飞行中形成的,而是在栖息在植被上时形成的,它们没有表现出逃跑的准备。这种扭曲的姿势,雄性倒挂,其附属物倾斜地滑过雌性的头部,是雌性栖息时形成交配轮的结果。早上晚些时候,我们观察到在合适的地点觅食飞行,并在潮湿草地的低矮植被中休息。在这个休息阶段,一些雄性检查了机翼上的植被,这里描述为“上午中旬的搜索飞行”。在这种情况下,以及当觅食个体聚集在一起时,我们发现了未扭曲、直立的悬挂伴侣,我们将其解释为飞行中形成的轮子——这表明了另一种交配策略。病毒伊蚊,也被认为表现出交配,发生在同一时期,表现相似。我们将黎明时分消耗能量的搜寻飞行解释为性选择:雌性通过只选择最适者的配偶来选择遗传质量。进一步的关键词。蜻蜓、Anioptera、交配行为、昼夜活动模式、搜寻飞行、转轮位置、交配策略、性选择我们调查了迄今为止未知的大七叶树交配行为,发现交配基本发生在黎明。随着第一缕晨光,雄性开始进行寻找栖息在以芦苇、灯心草和草地为特征的陆地植被深处的雌性的飞行。记录了在独特的扭转脚跟位置的交配。扭曲的轮子是独一无二的,因为它们不是在飞行中形成的,而是在栖息在植被上时形成的,它们没有表现出逃跑的准备。这种扭曲的姿势,雄性倒挂,其附属物倾斜地滑过雌性的头部,是雌性栖息时形成交配轮的结果。早上晚些时候,我们观察到在合适的地点觅食飞行,并在潮湿草地的低矮植被中休息。在这个休息阶段,一些雄性检查了机翼上的植被,这里描述为“上午中旬的搜索飞行”。 在这种情况下,以及当觅食个体聚集在一起时,我们发现了未扭曲、直立的悬挂伴侣,我们将其解释为飞行中形成的轮子——这表明了另一种交配策略。病毒伊蚊,也被认为表现出交配,发生在同一时期,表现相似。我们将黎明时分消耗能量的搜寻飞行解释为性选择:雌性通过只选择最适者的配偶来选择遗传质量。进一步的关键词。蜻蜓,异翅目,交配行为,昼夜活动模式,搜索飞行,扭曲的轮子位置,交配策略,性选择四斑利贝拉翅膀的高度变异227 Odonatologica 46(3/4)2017:227-240 2019年12月1日Odonatolicia 46(3/4)2017:222-240–DOI:10.5281/zenodo.1040305四斑利贝拉翅膀长度和翅膀面积的高度变异(Odonata:Libellulidae)Patricia Casanueva1,José-Franisco Sanz Requena1,M.Angeles Hernández2,Silvia Ortega1,Luisa F.Nunes3和Francisco Campos1欧洲大学实验科学系Miguel de Cervantes,Calle Padre Julio Chevalier 2,47012巴利亚多利德,西班牙;2 Escola Superior Agrária de Castelo Branco(IPCB/CEABN),Qta。Sra。Mércules,6000 Castelo Branco,Portugal 3 Departmento de Biología Ambiental,Facultad de Ciencias,Universidad de Navarra,31080 Pamplona,Spain 2017年3月8日接收;修订并接受2017年10月10日的摘要。1758年,分析了两个伊比利亚四斑丽蝇种群(一个在高原(海拔782米),另一个在山区(海拔909米)的标本中的右前翅和后翅的面积和长度以及腹部长度,以确定它们的形态计量特征是否随海拔而变化。两个种群的前翅和后翅的长度和面积存在异速关系。在高原标本中,翅膀更长,面积更大,而腹部的长度在不同种群之间没有变化。种群之间的翅膀长度测量存在重叠。讨论了这些参数在帮助蜻蜓飞行能力方面的重要性,以及在不同环境条件下对其生活方式的影响。进一步的关键词。蜻蜓、Anisoptera、翅膀形态、山脉、高原、伊比利亚半岛。1758年,在两个伊比利亚四斑丽蝇种群的标本中分析了右前翅和后翅的面积和长度以及腹部长度,一个在高原(782 m a.s.l.),另一个在山区(1 909 m a.s.l.),以确定它们的形态计量特征是否随海拔高度

Pantala flavescens is the most widespread odonate on Earth, absent only in Antarctica and parts of Europe. A recent study performed with sequences of mtDNA suggested the presence of one panmictic population of the species at a global scale. However, combining mitochondrial and nuclear markers could offer more information about the genetic variability of populations. Here, we sequenced a fragment of the COI gene and genotyped eight microsatellite loci in order to analyze the population genetic structure and diversity in individuals collected in Central America (two sites in Costa Rica, separated by 147 km) and two localities in South America (one site in Chile and one in Peru, separated by 52 km). The global F-ST estimated from COI and microsatellite data showed no evidence of genetic structure. Furthermore, an Analysis of Molecular Variance (AMOVA) performed with both COI and microsatellites also showed no evidence of genetic structure despite the >5 000 km of distance between both geographic regions. These results suggest an extraordinary movement of P. flavescens along the American continent, thus corroborating the previous study conducted on this species.

The final stadium (F) larva of Coeliccia flavostriata Laidlaw, 1918, is described and illustrated based on a mature male specimen, collected at Gunung Serapi, Sarawak, East Malaysia. The larva of Coeliccia campioni Laidlaw, 1918, is described from an immature (F-2?) female specimen from Gunung Mulu, Sarawak, East Malaysia. Larvae were identified by matching the mitochondrial marker COI with that of known adult specimens from several localities throughout Sarawak. The specimens presented close matches with all adults in this gene. Despite the disparity in maturity of the specimens several morphological differences, likely to be reflected in the mature larva of C. campioni, are identified. Comparisons with known larval descriptions of other Coeliccia species are provided. It is concluded that molecular analysis will eventually provide the most reliable practical method of determining the species of larvae of many species from this diverse genus.

It is concluded that molecular analysis will eventually provide the most reliable practical method of determining the species of larvae of many species from this diverse genus.","PeriodicalId":54689,"journal":{"name":"Odonatologica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71086351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
