L’inventaire odonatologique de trois oueds majeurs algériens : Kebir- Est, Seybouse et Rhumel, a permis l’identification de 40 espèces. Nos résultats révèlent la présence de Calopteryx exul, endémique maghrébin, dans l’oued Seybouse et semblent confirmer l’extinction de la population type dans l’oued Rhumel où l’espèce avait été découverte au XIXe siècle. Nos résultats indiquent également l’expansion de plusieurs espèces: Coenagrion caerulescens, Orthetrum nitidinerve, Trithemis kirbyi et Urothemis edwardsii dont la population relictuelle est en danger critique d’extinction. La mesure de diverses variables physicochimiques (altitude, température, conductivité, etc.) nous a permis d’explorer une possible co-structure entre les jeux de données faunistiques et de variables environnementales. L’analyse des données indique que la richesse spécifique est, selon l’oued, variablement correlée à l’hydropériode, à la conductivité et à la température de l’eau, suggérant son utilité dans l’évaluation de l’intégrité écologique des cours d’eau méditerranéens.

  • A New Genus of Miniature Cynolebiasine from the Atlantic
    64 (1): 23 – 33 © Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung, 2014. 16.5.2014 A new genus of miniature cynolebiasine from the Atlantic Forest and alternative biogeographical explanations for seasonal killifish distribution patterns in South America (Cyprinodontiformes: Rivulidae) Wilson J. E. M. Costa Laboratório de Sistemática e Evolução de Peixes Teleósteos, Instituto de Biologia, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Caixa Postal 68049, CEP 21944 – 970, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil; wcosta(at)acd.ufrj.br Accepted 21.ii.2014. Published online at www.senckenberg.de/vertebrate-zoology on 30.iv.2014. Abstract The analysis of 78 morphological characters for 16 species representing all the lineages of the tribe Cynopoecilini and three out-groups, indicates that the incertae sedis miniature species ‘Leptolebias’ leitaoi Cruz & Peixoto is the sister group of a clade comprising the genera Leptolebias, Campellolebias, and Cynopoecilus, consequently recognised as the only member of a new genus. Mucurilebias gen. nov. is diagnosed by seven autapomorphies: eye occupying great part of head side, low number of caudal-fin rays (21), distal portion of epural much broader than distal portion of parhypural, an oblique red bar through opercle in both sexes, isthmus bright red in males, a white stripe on the distal margin of the dorsal fin in males, and a red stripe on the distal margin of the anal fin in males.Mucurilebias leitaoi is an endangered seasonal species endemic to the Mucuri river basin. The biogeographical analysis of genera of the subfamily Cynolebiasinae using a dispersal-vicariance, event-based parsimony approach indicates that distribution of South American killifishes may be broadly shaped by dispersal events.

  • Diversity and Distribution of Odonata in University Sumatera Utara, Medan, Indonesian
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC & TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH VOLUME 5, ISSUE 05, MAY 2016 ISSN 2277-8616 Diversity And Distribution Of Odonata In University Sumatera Utara, Medan, Indonesian Ameilia Zuliyanti Siregar, Darma Bakti Abstract: A total of nine stations randomly selected study sites around the University Sumatera Utara area conducted during a month (16 January 2016 until 16 February 2016) for identified of Odonata. Odonata are insect which function as bioindicator and conservation of an environment status in the area. The sampled were collected using a sweep net (400 μm mesh, 60 cm x 90 cm) with six times the swing starts at 0900 until 1200 noon hour and identified in the laboratory. Consist of two sub-orders, 4 families, 24 genera, 32 species and 156 individuals identified dragonfly. Orthetrum sabina, Pantala flavescens and Agriocnemis femina are the kinds of dragonflies dominant, while two types of Vestalis/Arethystira amoena and Tholymis aurora is found only in the Station 3. As much as 54% relative abundance of family Coenagrionidae dominated, followed by Libellulidae (35%), Gomphidae (8%) and the smallest recorded from family Calopterygidae (35). The calculation of the value of the index is done, includes diversity Shannon, eveness and varied of Jaccard index (H'=2.48-3.79, E=0.70-0.85, CJ=0.45 to 1.00). Based on the conservation status, calculated the percentage of attendance dragonfly, divided into four groups of species that are rare (6.28%), there are species (54.24%), many species (24.78%) and very many species (14.70%). This study shows diversity and distribution of Odonata can used as potential as predators and conservation status of ecosystem University of Sumatera Utara areas.

This includes observations of behaviour, breeding and flowering patterns, distributions and range extensions, foraging, food, movement, measurements, habitat and colouration/plumage variations. Biotic interactions such as pollination, fruit dispersal, herbivory and predation fall within the scope, as well as the use of indigenous and exotic species by humans. Observations of naturalised plants and animals will also be considered. Biodiversity Observations will also publish a variety of other interesting or relevant biodiversity material: reports of projects and conferences, annotated checklists for a site or region, specialist bibliographies, book reviews and any other appropriate material.

Hassan Entomology Research Laboratory, Department ofZoology, University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria Received December 21, 1977 / Accepted February 20, 1978 The observations were carried out at 2 localities in Nigeria. The dd defend territories, maintained on a temporary basis. The number of days on which individuals visited water varied from 1-14 (mean 5.33). The territory length in amounted to 1.5-2.0 m (between 09.00-10.30 hrs), and 0.50-0.75 m (later the day). The territories were defended for 842 min. Sperm transfer was not between 3.9-6.8 observed after a d had secured a 9. Copulation ranged sec. the Both sexes mated more than once daily. After copulation partners were resting either separately or, infrequently, in tandem (0.0-106.7 sec). Ovi- position is complex and lasted for 20.9-160.3 sec (mean 74.7). The perching plants provided suitable oviposition sites. INTRODUCTION Reproductive behaviour of libellulid dragonflies, particularly males, had been observed MOORE and experimented on by various workers, e.g. (1952, 1957, 1960), JACOBS (1955), 1TO (1060), KORMONDY (1961), PAJUNEN (1962), CAMPANELLA (1972), PARR & PARR (1974), and GREEN (1974), amongst others, revealed that libellulids hold and defend territories, and exhibit localiza- tion to varying degrees. of This investigation is an examination of the reproductive behaviour Acisoma panorpoides inflatum Selys with respect to the time of arrival at water, the size and maintenance of the territory, the degree of localization, and copulation and oviposition behaviour.

The genus name Adamas was proposed by Malaise, 1945 as an objective replacement name of the genus Dinax Konow, 1897 with the type species Dinax jakowleffi Konow, 1897. For the present, the genus Adamas Malaise, 1945 includes six species (Wei, 2004). Subsequently, the genus Adamas was described by Huber, 1979 with the type species Adamas formosus Huber, 1979 by monotypy from in front of Ntokou village near the banks of Likouala-Mossaka River, Congo.
