Flight of the dragons: a global review of migration in Odonata
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Insects are the most abundant and ecologically important animal migrants. Yet, we know relatively little about the patterns and processes underlying insect migration. Dragonflies (Anisoptera) and damselflies (Zygoptera) comprise the ancient insect order Odonata, whose ancestors were the first organisms to fly on Earth.

Nature, 1881 THE following circumstance may prove interesting, and probably new, to some of your entomological readers. On September 10, in a gathering of pond-water made in this neighbourhood and brought home for microscopical examination, a somewhat singular and unusual object presented itself, but speedily making its way to the sediment at the bottom, it became ...

Waders in a sea of debris: a global overview
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The impact of plastic pollution on ecosystems and marine fauna is well documented, although research into its effects on waders (also known as shorebirds) remains limited. Given that waders are exposed to coastal marine litter, this exposure could be a significant factor in the decline of their populations. This study aims to assess the global

Dynamics of biotic resistance to plant invasions
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biotic resistance, the reduction in invasion success caused by native communities, plays an important role in the long‐term dynamics of biological invasions. A large body of empirical research on biotic resistance has accumulated since the last comprehensive review on the subject 20 years ago, enabling us to achieve a refined understanding of ...

What drives animal responses to high severity fire? The role of functional traits
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fire regimes are changing worldwide, with increases in the frequency, extent, and severity of fires posing growing risks to biodiversity. Fire severity – the degree of habitat alteration following fire – strongly influences both immediate survival and long‐term recovery of fauna.

An Aquatic Hymenopterous Insect [PDF]
Nature, 1895 No doubt many of your readers are aware that, in 1863, Sir John Lubbock gave an account of an extraordinary hymenopterous insect which he had observed swimming in a basin of water taken from a pond at Chislehurst. Another observer (Mr. Duchess, of Stepney) had also found a single specimen about the same time; then, in 1881, Mr.
