The larva of E. media can be distinguished from other species of Erythrodiplax by the presence of lateral spines on S8 and S9, the number of premental setae (n = 22), palpal setae (n = 7) and by the mandibular formula. We also provide a preliminary key to known South American larvae in the genus. Keywords: Brazil; coastal wetlands; dragonfly; exuvia; Anisoptera Introduction Erythrodiplax Brauer, 1868 is an American genus that includes 60 species (Schorr & Paulson, 2017), of which 40 are known to occur in Brazil (Pinto, 2017) and 18 are hitherto reported from the state of Rio Grande do Sul (Consatti, Santos, Renner & Périco, 2014;Costa,1971; Hanauer, Renner & Périco, 2014; Kittel & Engels, 2016; Renner, Périco & Sahlén, 2013, 2016; Renner, Périco, Sahlén, Santos & Consatti, 2015; Teixeira, 1971). The genus consists of many rather similar species, which makes diagnosis difficult.

  • Adaptations Dragonflies and Dragon
    Odonatologica 7 (1): 27-47 March 1,1978 Thermal adaptationsof dragonflies M.L. May Departmentof Physiology and Biophysics, University of Illinois at Urbana-Campaign, 524 Burrill Hall, Urbana, Illinois 61801, United States Received and Accepted September 26, 1977 Most Odonata probably exert some control over their body temperature. Such behaviour is favored by the high, variable temperatureof their terrestrial and habitat by the fact that dragonflies are relatively large insects and thus ex- change heat with the environment comparatively slowly. Different species may thermoregulate behaviorally by controlling the external heat load or physiol- ogically by altering the amount of heat generated by or dissipated from the thoracic muscles. The former method is characteristic of perchers, which are usually in a situation that permits considerable modulation of intercepted solar radiation, mostly by postural adjustments. There is also evidence that some species may perch more frequently in the shade when ambient tem- perature is high. Fliers, by contrast, have little opportunity to control inter- cepted solar radiation but continually generate large amounts of heat during flight. They may alter their rate of heat loss by controlling haemolymph flow from the thorax or their rate of heat gain by changing the proportion of gliding vs. flapping flight. Some species combine behavioral and physiological modes of regulation.Adaptive geographic, seasonal, and inter-habitat variation occurs in the responses of dragonflies to temperature.Voluntary avoidance of high temperature seems most closely adapted to the thermal environment. and Temperature responses thermoregulatory ability also vary with age and sex. The effects of temperature on the activity patterns of Odonata and the adaptive significance of thermoregulationhave yet to be rigorously demon- strated in most cases.

This collection holds 2900 specimens of Odonata which have been collected since 1940 across 27 departments of the country. More than a half of the specimens are Anisoptera (53%) and these are represented by three families Aeshnidae, Gomphidae, and Libellulidae, 38 genera and 91 species.

  • MACROTHEMIS FALLAX, ANEW SPECIES of DRAGONFLY from CENTRAL AMERICA (ANISOPTERA: LIBELLULIDAE), with a KEY to MALE MACROTHEMIS Ab
    International Journal of Odonatology 1 (2): 137-153, 1998. © 1998 Backhuys Publishers. 137 MACROTHEMIS FALLAX, ANEW SPECIES OF DRAGONFLY FROM CENTRAL AMERICA (ANISOPTERA: LIBELLULIDAE), WITH A KEY TO MALE MACROTHEMIS Michael L. May Department of Entomology, New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station, Cook College, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ 08901-8524, U.S. A Received 24 February 1998; revised 8 July 1998; accepted 10 July 1998 Key words: Odonata, Abstract Macrothemis fa/lax spec. nov is described and figured from males collected in Belize and central Panama. It is apparently closely related to the widespread species, M. pseudimitans Calvert, 1898, with which it has hitherto been confused. These two species differ in shape of the cerci and epiproct, metafemoral armature, and thoracic and tibial coloration. A key to males of the genus, based largely on literature sources, is also provided. Introduction The genus Macrothemis is almost exclusively Neotropical, although a few species range northward into northern Mexico and the southwestern United States (Needham & Westfall, 1955). It comprises 39 or 40 species (Bridges, 1994, following Garrison, 1991, placed M. valida Navas, 1916, in Brechmorhoga, a plausible but so far unsubstantiated transfer), including the one described here. The latter is typical of the genus in that the inferior tooth of each tarsal claw is enlarged and its tip extends beyond that of the superior tooth. Thus the placement in Macrothemis rather than Brechmorhoga is clearly warranted, although the trigonal interspace of one forewing of the holotype is widened distally more than is usual in Macrothemis (Donnelly, 1984). The last comprehensive treatment of the genus was that of Ris (1913); although still very useful, this work is seriously outdated owing to the subsequent description of 15 species (Belle, 1983, 1987; Costa 1990, 1991; Donnelly, 1984; Gonzalez, 1992; Navas, 1916, 1918; Racenis, 1957; Ris, 1919; Santos, 1967).
