Mitochondrial 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

Observations on the Nesting of \u3ci\u3eCrabro Tenuis\u3c/i\u3e (Hymenoptera: Sphecidae) [PDF]
, 2017 Three nests of Crabro tenuis were studied during June 1971-1972 in Oswego County, New York. Females constructed shallow but lengthy, multicelled nests in sand with the cells being built in clusters, sometimes in series. Females plugged the entrances with

Pests for Dinner: Dietary Composition of Insectivorous Bats in a Fragmented Tropical Dry Forest
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.Insectivorous bats are key predators of a wide array of arthropods, including species that act as disease vectors and pests, yet such ecological roles remain poorly studied in tropical regions. In this study, we aimed to describe the diet of five insectivorous bat species from the genera Balantiopteryx, Myotis, Mormoops, and Pteronotus inhabiting a ...

The impact of climate-induced distributional changes on the validity of biological water quality metrics [PDF]
, 2010 We present data on the distributional changes within an order of macroinvertebrates used in biological water quality monitoring. The British Odonata (dragonflies and damselflies) have been shown to be expanding their range northwards and this could ...

Conservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 2, March/April 2026.ABSTRACT Insects are the most diverse and functionally important animals on Earth. In at least some regions, terrestrial populations are declining. Despite this, insects are often overlooked in conservation policy, and it is difficult to assess how anthropogenic threats and conservation actions affect insect populations.

Determinants of Terrestrial and Limnic Species Richness in Germany
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Biodiversity is increasingly threatened by human impacts. While abiotic conditions are well known to shape species richness, the role of human activities remains less clear. We examined how abiotic and human factors influence terrestrial and limnic species richness in a densely populated region with a long land‐use history.

European 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.

Urbanisation of Floodplains Reduces Species Richness of Several Taxonomic Groups Worldwide
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Global urbanisation is one of the main threats to biodiversity worldwide, with consequences on human health. Many large urban areas are situated close to river floodplains to satisfy human needs. While studies have quantified the consequences of urbanisation on floodplain biodiversity at a local scale, no quantification exists at a global ...

The development of sexual differences in body size in Odonata in relation to mating systems
European Journal of Entomology, 2007 Adult body size is the result of important environmental, maternal and/or genetic effects acting on animals during development. Here we investigate how sexual size dimorphism (SSD) develops in seven species of Odonata: Anax imperator, Cordulegaster ...
