Higher gregarine parasitism often in sibling species of host damselflies with smaller geographical distributions [PDF]
1. This study investigated inter-specific variation in parasitism by gregarines (Eugregarinorida: Actinocephalidae), among sibling species of damselflies (Odonata: Zygoptera), in relation to relative size of geographical ranges of host species.

Thermal response of two sexually dimorphic Calopteryx (Odonata) over an ambient temperature range
Organisms may internally or behaviorally regulate their body temperatures or conform to the ambient air temperatures. Previous evidence is mixed on whether wing pigmentation influences thermoregulation in various odonates.

Phenology determines seasonal variation in ectoparasite loads in a natural insect population [PDF]
1. The extent to which individuals are parasitised is a function of exposure to parasites and the immune response, which in ectotherms may be associated with temperature. 2.

Historical changes in the phenology of British Odonata are related to climate [PDF]
Responses of biota to climate change take a number of forms including distributional shifts, behavioural changes and life history changes. This study examined an extensive set of biological records to investigate changes in the timing of life history ...
