Sánchez-Herrera et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology (2020) 20:74 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12862-020-01638-z RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access An exploration of the complex biogeographical history of the Neotropical banner-wing damselflies (Odonata: Polythoridae) Melissa Sánchez-Herrera1,2* , Christopher D. Beatty3, Renato Nunes2,4, Camilo Salazar1 and Jessica L. Ware2,5 Abstract Background: The New World Tropics has experienced a dynamic landscape across evolutionary history and harbors a high diversity of flora and fauna. While there are some studies addressing diversification in Neotropical vertebrates and plants, there is still a lack of knowledge in arthropods. Here we examine temporal and spatial diversification patterns in the damselfly family Polythoridae, which comprises seven genera with a total of 58 species distributed across much of Central and South America. Results: Our time-calibrated phylogeny for 48 species suggests that this family radiated during the late Eocene (~ 33 Ma), diversifying during the Miocene. As with other neotropical groups, the Most Recent Common Ancestor (MRCA) of most of the Polythoridae genera has a primary origin in the Northern Andes though the MRCA of at least one genus may have appeared in the Amazon Basin. Our molecular clock suggests correlations with some major geographical events, and our biogeographical modeling (with BioGeoBEARS and RASP) found a significant influence of the formation of the Pebas and Acre systems on the early diversification of these damselflies, though evidence for the influence of the rise of the different Andean ranges was mixed. Diversification rates have been uniform in all genera except one—Polythore—where a significant increase in the late Pliocene (~ 3 mya) may have been influenced by recent Andean uplift. -

These photographs revealed that only Euphaeaamphicyana reflected UV from its other wings whereas all spp. either did not absorb UV (e.g. 94.5% of the Coenagri- did In with flavescent. onidae) or so to varying degrees. particular, spp. orange or brown UV these wings (or wing patches) exhibited absorption for same areas. However, other spp. with nearly transparent wings (especially certain Gomphidae) Pruinose also had strong UV absorption. body regions reflected UV but the standard acetone treatment for color preservation dissolves thewax particles of the pruinosity and destroys UV reflectivity. As is typical for arthropod cuticle, non-pruinosebody regions absorbed UV and this obscured whatever color patterns might otherwise be visible without the camera’s UV filter. Frequently there is sexual dimorphismin UV and and these role various of patterns (wings body) differences may play a in aspects mating behavior. INTRODUCTION Considerable attention has been paid to the various ultraviolet (UV) patterns exhibited by the Lepidoptera (e.g. SCOTT, 1973). Studies have shown (e.g. RUTOWSKI, 1981) that differing UV-reflectance patterns are frequently used as visual in various of behavior. few insect cues aspects mating Although a other groups have been investigated for the presence of UV patterns (HINTON, 1973; POPE & HINTON, 1977; S1LBERGL1ED, 1979), little informationis available for the Odonata. -

In adult dragonflies, β-carotene was found to be a major carotenoid along with lutein, zeaxanthin, β-caroten-2-ol, and echinenone in both Anisoptera and Zygoptera. On the other hand, unique car- otenoids, β-zeacarotene, β,ψ-carotene (γ-carotene), torulene, β,γ-carotene, and γ,γ-carotene, were present in both Anisoptera and Zygoptera dragonflies. These carotenoids were not found in larvae.
