The complete mitochondrial genome of Sympetrum striolatum (Odonata: Libellulidae) and phylogenetic analysis

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
Here, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitogenome of Sympetrum striolatum (Odonata: Libellulidae). This mitogenome is 15,435 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), 2 ribosomal RNA unit genes, and

Wings of Coenagrion puella vary in shape at the northern range margin (Odonata: Coenagrionidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A previous study has shown that wing size in Coenagrion puella varied considerably along a latitudinal gradient in the UK. Using landmark data from wing images, patterns of shape variation were also determined along the same transect by geometric ...

Current Protections and Future Threats to Say's Spiketail Habitat in the Southeastern USA

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Dragonflies and damselflies are important indicators of ecological integrity and environmental quality but remain underrepresented in conservation efforts, in part due to a lack of quantitative information regarding their habitat requirements. Species distribution models (SDMs) can facilitate conservation planning by allowing researchers to estimate ...

Farm‐scale Natural Capital Accounting: Unlocking the potential of natural capital to support sustainable agriculture

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1434-1461, May 2026.
Abstract The demand for information about property‐scale natural capital is growing rapidly as producers and supply chains respond to opportunities and pressures to report environmental performance information. Natural Capital Accounting offers promise but agreed methods for farm‐scale accounts are currently lacking.

Diagnostic Efficacy of Morphological Characters of Larval \u3ci\u3eTramea Lacerata\u3c/i\u3e Hagen and \u3ci\u3eTramea Onusta\u3c/i\u3e Hagen (Odonata: Libellulidae) in the Prairie Region of Missouri [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Distinguishing among species of larvae of the dragonfly genus Tramea historically has been problematic, largely due to conflicting characterizations of the larvae of T. lacerata Hagen and T. onusta Hagen (Odonata: Libellulidae) in the literature.

When Similar Individuals Don't Attract: Absence of Assortative Mating by Coloration in a Damselfly With Honest Signaling

open access: yesEthology, Volume 132, Issue 5, Page 305-316, May 2026.
In Acanthagrion lancea damselflies, both sexes display blue ornamentation, but do they choose mates based on it? We tested whether mutual mate choice and time constraints influence ornament evolution. Blue coloration correlated with individual quality, but individuals did not choose mates based on color, and this was unaffected by time constraints over

Population structure and speciation in the dragonfly Sympetrum striolatum/nigrescens (Odonata: Libellulidae): An analysis using AFLP markers

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2009
There has been a long-standing debate as to whether Sympetrum striolatum (Charpentier, 1840) and the darker northern form, S. nigrescens (Lucas, 1912) should be recognised as separate species of dragonfly.

Discovery of an Isolated Population of \u3ci\u3eAnax Longipes\u3c/i\u3e in Michigan (Odonata: Aeshnidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Anax longipes is a large aeshnid dragonfly previously unknown from Michigan. Adults and larvae were found in abundance at a series of experimental ponds within the E.S.

Visual Cues Can Alter the Behavioural Responses of Dragonfly Larvae to Chemical Alarm Cues

open access: yesEthology, Volume 132, Issue 5, Page 349-358, May 2026.
Using a controlled experimental approach, we examined how chemical and visual cues influence antipredator behaviour in Aeshna cyanea larvae and tested whether risk‐related information can be socially transmitted among nearby conspecifics. Our results show that dragonfly larvae do not copy the antipredator responses of others, but visual cues alter how ...
