Oxylipins at intermediate larval stages of damselfly Coenagrion hastulatum as biochemical biomarkers for anthropogenic pollution [PDF]
AbstractAquatic pollution resulting from anthropogenic activities requires adequate environmental monitoring strategies in sentinel organisms. Thus, biochemical biomarkers have been used as early-warning tools of biological effects in aquatic organisms.

Wastewater effluent affects behaviour and metabolomic endpoints in damselfly larvae [PDF]
Wastewater treatment plant effluents have been identified as a major contributor to increasing anthropogenic pollution in aquatic environments worldwide. Yet, little is known about the potentially adverse effects of wastewater treatment plant effluent on

Using functional traits and phylogeny to understand local extinction risk in dragonflies and damselflies (Odonata). [PDF]
Our results from phylogenetic generalized least squares (PGLS) models indicated that the geographical range size of species was negatively related to local extinction risk of odonates. In contrast, habitat specialist species had lower local extinction rates than habitat generalist species, and it was independent from the relatedness of species.

Effects of water temperature on freshwater macroinvertebrates: a systematic review. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Water temperature is one of the main abiotic factors affecting the structure and functioning of aquatic ecosystems and its alteration can have important effects on biological communities. Macroinvertebrates are excellent bio‐indicators and have been used for decades to assess the status of aquatic ecosystems as a result of environmental ...

Leveraging Massive Opportunistically Collected Datasets to Study Species Communities in Space and Time. [PDF]
We present a spatiotemporal joint species distribution model to analyse large‐scale opportunistically collected biodiversity data. Our model addresses variable detection probabilities across visits and species by modelling phenological patterns and by extending the use of latent variables to characterise observer‐specific detection and reporting ...

Highly Conserved Ecosystems Facing Climate Change: Rapid Shifts in Odonata Assemblages of Central European Bogs. [PDF]
This study investigated how climate change has affected species richness, composition, taxonomic diversity, functional traits, and phylogenetic patterns of species turnover of odonatofauna of Central European raised and transitional bogs over the past 25 years.

A new statistical approach for identifying rare species under imperfect detection
Abstract Aim Species rarity is often used as a measure to assess the risk of extinction of species, and thus, different methods have been developed to describe the composition of rare species in biological communities. These methods usually depend on species attributes that are not always available and very often ignore imperfect species detection.

Fauna vilinih konjica (Odonata) planine Zelengora i Nacionalnog parka Sutjeska
Visokoplaninska staništa u Bosni i Hercegovini (BiH) su često izolovana i teško pristupačna, zbog čega je njihova fauna vilinih konjica sve do danas ostala gotovo potpuno neistražena.
