Nonadaptive radiation in damselflies [PDF]
Evolutionary Applications, 2015 AbstractAdaptive radiations have long served as living libraries to study the build‐up of species richness; however, they do not provide good models for radiations that exhibit negligible adaptive disparity. Here, we review work on damselflies to argue that nonadaptive mechanisms were predominant in the radiation of this group and have driven species ...

Differences in land use modify Odonata assemblages in the Cerrado-Caatinga ecotone
Acta Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2020 : Aim The present study tested the hypothesis that the composition of the odonate assemblages in environments with greater habitat integrity is significantly different from that of areas with reduced habitat integrity.

Study design and mark-recapture estimates of dispersal: A case study with the endangered damselfly Coenagrion mercuriale [PDF]
, 2012 Accurate data on dispersal ability are vital to the understanding of how species are affected by fragmented landscapes. However, three factors may limit the ability of field studies to detect a representative sample of dispersal events: (1) the number of

Immune function and parasite resistance in male and polymorphic female Coenagrion puella [PDF]
, 2006 Background: Colour polymorphisms are widespread and one of the prime examples is the colour polymorphism in female coenagrionid damselflies: one female morph resembles the male colour (andromorph) while one, or more, female morphs are described as ...

Freshwater Reservoir, Ecological Traps and Source-Sink Dynamics
Diversity, 2022 Odonata are biodiversity indicators that adequately represent many aquatic and semi-aquatic animal species. We recorded over two field seasons a rich lentic community of Odonata (18 species) in a large artificial freshwater reservoir (ca. 55 ha) built 40
