Responses of biota to climate change have been well documented for a restricted number of
taxa. This study examined shifts in phenology of 37 species of the aquatic insect order …

Knowledge about the ecology of urban water systems is very scarce. We assessed the
conservation value of urban drainage systems in lowland areas and compared these with …

Given the rapid response of insects to environmental changes, their most prominent threats
may change quickly as well. For effective insect species conservation it is therefore …

Many dragonfly species in The Netherlands declined in the 20th century because of
acidification, eutrophication, and desiccation of lotic and lentic habitats and canalization of …

It is expected that climate change will have a great impact on many species and habitats.
This will be greater if populations are found at the edge of their range or are isolated, and …

The trends of 60 Dutch dragonfly species were calculated for three different periods (1980–
1993, 1994–1998 and 1999–2003). Comparing period 1 and period 3 shows that 39 of …

Many species of dragonflies are restricted to specific habitats and sensitive to changes in
their habitat. This means that the occurrence of different dragonfly species can be indicative …

Biogeographical zonation based on single taxa poses major limitations on planning for
nature conservation. This paper identifies biogeographical patterns of multiple taxa in the …

Background Red Lists estimate the extinction risk of species at global or regional levels and
are important instruments in conservation policies. Global Red List assessments are readily …
