Temperature response of growth of larval dragonflies–an overview
We review the knowledge about the thermal reaction norms of larval growth in Odonata with
a focus on the temperature response function. We re-analyze literature data and present our …

Nuclear copies of mitochondrial DNA as a potential problem for phylogenetic and population genetic studies of Odonata
The use of mitochondrial markers for taxonomic identification and biodiversity monitoring is
not without risks or limitations. Most importantly, the natural transfer of DNA from the …

A global population genetic study of Pantala flavescens
Among terrestrial arthropods, the dragonfly species Pantala flavescens is remarkable due to
their nearly global distribution and extensive migratory ranges; the largest of any known …

Numerical investigation on the aerodynamic efficiency of bio-inspired corrugated and cambered airfoils in ground effect
GR Abdizadeh, M Farokhinejad, S Ghasemloo - Scientific Reports, 2022 - nature.com
This research numerically investigates the flapping motion effect on the flow around two
subsonic airfoils near a ground wall. Thus far, the aerodynamic efficiency of the dragonfly …

Niche breadth predicts geographical range size and northern range shift in European dragonfly species (Odonata)
We studied how range sizes and shifts in species ranges depend on niche breadth in
European dragonflies. We measured range sizes and shifts over a 22-year period (1988 …
