Distribution trends of European dragonflies under climate change [PDF]
Diversity and Distributions: A journal of biological invasions and biodiversity, 2019 Poleward range shifts of species are among the most obvious effects of climate change on biodiversity. As a consequence of these range shifts, species communities are predicted to become increasingly composed of warm‐dwelling species, but this has only ...

Response of adult dragonflies to artificial prey of different size and colour.
PLoS ONE, 2017 Aposematism is an evolved, cross-species association between a preys' unprofitability and the presence of conspicuous signals. Avian predators have been widely employed to understand the evolution of these warning signals However, insect predators are ...

Dragonflies use underdamped pursuit to chase conspecifics [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2019 Pursuit is a common behavior exhibited by animals chasing prey, competitors and potential mates. Because of their speed and maneuverability, dragonflies are frequently studied as a model system for biological pursuit.

Camera-trapping estimates of the relative population density of Sympetrum dragonflies: application to multihabitat users in agricultural landscapes [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Although camera trapping has been effectively used for wildlife monitoring, its application to multihabitat insects (i.e., insects requiring terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems) is limited.

Development of a camera trap for perching dragonflies: a new tool for freshwater environmental assessment [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Although dragonflies are excellent environmental indicators for monitoring terrestrial water ecosystems, automatic monitoring techniques using digital tools are limited. We designed a novel camera trapping system with an original dragonfly detector based

Diversity of Nearctic Dragonflies and Damselflies (Odonata)
Diversity, 2022 Rarely have studies assessed Odonata diversity for the entire Nearctic realm by including Canada, the United States, and Mexico. For the first time, we explored Odonata diversity in this region according to a definition of natural community assemblages ...
