In 2001, 80 larvae of Leucorrhinia dubia were translocated from degraded raised bog in Slovakia to the newly created peatbog pools in Czechia, and the population has been regularly monitored. Based on the capture‐mark‐recapture and exuviae surveys in 2015 and 2024, the population size is stable, comprising ca.

Field estimates of reproductive success in a model insect: behavioural surrogates are poor predictors of fitness [PDF]
Understanding, and therefore measuring, factors that determine fitness is a central problem in evolutionary biology. We studied a natural population of Coenagrion puella (Odonata: Zygoptera) over two entire breeding seasons, with over a thousand ...

Thermal Plasticity in a Cross‐Sexual Transfer Trait: Geographic Variation and Phenotypic Integration of Blue Wing Colour in Female Butterflies [PDF]
We provide a first test whether female colour variation in common blue butterflies (a) has arisen through cross‐sexual transfer. Analyses of museum specimens (b) show that the distribution of females wing colour varies in a geographic mosaic pattern, and laboratory experiments (c) show that this variation is both genetically determined and impacted by ...

Assessing predation pressure of Vespa velutina on local fauna through DNA metabarcoding
This study investigates the predation pressure exerted by the invasive yellow‐legged hornet (Vespa velutina) on native insect populations in Mallorca, using DNA metabarcoding to analyze their diet. Results reveal a diverse prey spectrum, including key insect groups such as Apidae (bees), Calliphoridae (blowflies), and Vespidae (wasps), with no ...
