Local Extinction of Dragonfly and Damselfly Populations in Low‐ and High‐Quality Habitat Patches

The results suggest that a good understanding of habitat quality is crucial for the conservation of species in heterogeneous landscapes, and local extinction rates were higher in low-quality than in high-quality habitats.

Description and DNA barcoding of Tipula ( Pterelachisus) recondita sp. n. from the Palaearctic region (Diptera, Tipulidae)

Although variation in the structure of male hypopygium between the Finnish and Russian populations is observed, DNA barcode sequences differ only by three nucleotides, supporting presence of one widespread species of Tipula (Pterelachisus), known from old-growth herb-rich forest (Finland) and Quercus mongolica forest (Russia).

Macroarthropod species richness and conservation priorities in Stratiotes aloides (L.) lakes

It is suggested that protecting Stratiotes simultaneously conserves valuable arthropod fauna, including A. viridis, as well as the potential occurrence of an internationally endangered Stratiote-habitat specialist, the dragonfly Aeshna  viridis, can increase the conservation value of plant colonies.
