Prey-Foraging Patterns in a Complex Landscape of Fear. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Prey antipredator defenses may weaken when a predator is cannibalistic or stressed, but it remains unclear which predator prey systems show this effect and how strongly it shapes trophic cascades. In our aquatic food chain (higher order predator, mesopredator, and mesopredator's prey), we found no defense suppression in mesopredators exposed to ...

Damselfly eggs alter their development rate in the presence of an invasive alien cue but not a native predator cue

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Biological invasions are a serious problem in natural ecosystems. Local species that are potential prey of invasive alien predators can be threatened by their inability to recognize invasive predator cues.

European database of the life-history, morphological and habitat characteristics of dragonflies (Odonata)

European Journal of Entomology, 2020
Climate change and an ever-increasing effect of humans on the great majority of freshwater ecosystems have affected not only individual organisms but also the links between them. In order to effectively protect communities or entire freshwater ecosystems,

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.

Molecular and Morphological Analyses Support Different Taxonomic Units for Asian and Australo-Pacific Forms of Ischnura aurora (Odonata, Coenagrionidae)

Diversity, 2022
Despite the great technological progress that has aided taxonomical identification, taxonomical issues remain for certain species found in remote and/or understudied geographical areas. The damselfly species Ischnura aurora has been the subject of a long-
