Investigating odonates' response to climate change in Great Britain: a tale of two strategies [PDF]

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 30, Issue 4, April 2024.
Aim Species are largely thought to maintain broadly static niches over time, an assumption underpinning much theoretical ecology including the implementation of ecological models to project species' current and future distributions. Here, we assess niche

Using functional traits and phylogeny to understand local extinction risk in dragonflies and damselflies (Odonata). [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2022
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]

open access: yesBiol Rev Camb Philos Soc, 2023
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]

open access: yesEcol Lett
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]

open access: yesGlob Chang Biol
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

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 882-893, May 2022., 2022
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.

Winners and losers over 35 years of dragonfly and damselfly distributional change in Germany

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 27, Issue 8, Page 1353-1366, August 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim Recent studies suggest insect declines in parts of Europe; however, the generality of these trends across different taxa and regions remains unclear. Standardized data are not available to assess large‐scale, long‐term changes for most insect groups but opportunistic citizen science data are widespread for some.
