DUNKLE (1995) described a new subspecies of mengeri. The new species described here is from southern Ecuador and Peru.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with edjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected teat the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.

Oliveira‑Junior2,3, Karina Dias‑Silva2, Ana Luiza‑Andrade1, Rhainer Guillermo4, Adolfo Cordero‑Rivera5 & Leandro Juen1,2 The odonates are insects that have a wide range of reproductive, ritualized territorial, and aggressive behaviors. Changes in behavior are the frst response of most odonate species to environmental alterations. In this context, the primary objective of the present study was to assess the efects of environmental alterations resulting from shifts in land use on diferent aspects of the behavioral diversity of adult odonates. Fieldwork was conducted at 92 low‑order streams in two diferent regions of the Brazilian Amazon. To address our main objective, we measured 29 abiotic variables at each stream, together with fve morphological and fve behavioral traits of the resident odonates. The results indicate a loss of behaviors at sites impacted by anthropogenic changes, as well as variation in some morphological/behavioral traits under specifc environmental conditions. We highlight the importance of considering behavioral traits in the development of conservation strategies, given that species with a unique behavioral repertoire may sufer specifc types of extinction pressure. Te enormous variety of behavior exhibited by most animals has inspired human thought, arts, and Science for centuries, from rupestrian paintings to the Greek philosophers.

Ninety-three ingroup taxa and six outgroup taxa were amplified for the 28S fragment; 78 ingroup taxa and five outgroup taxa were amplified for the 16S fragment.

  • Odonata) Evaluated for Their Possible Inclusion in the National Red Data Book*
    International Journal of Odonatology 2 (1): 55-67, 1999. © 1999 Backhuys Publishers. 55 RARE VENEZUELAN DRAGONFLIES (ODONATA) EVALUATED FOR THEIR POSSIBLE INCLUSION IN THE NATIONAL RED DATA BOOK* Jiirg De Marmels Instituto de Zoologia Agricola, Facultad de Agronomia, Universidad Central de Venezuela, Apartado 4579, Maracay 2101-A, Venezuela. This paper is dedicated to Philip S. Corbet on the occasion of his 70th birthday. *An earlier version of the present paper was read at the "XIV International Symposium of Odonatology ", Maribor (Slovenia), 12-18 July, 1997. Received 20 February 1998; revised 18 August 1998; accepted 25 August 1998 Key words: Red List, Insects, Odonata, Conservation, Venezuela. Abstract Of the 480 species and subspecies listed from Venezuela up to December 1996, 113 are "rare", i.e. with three or less individual records, or are known from three or less localities. Thirty-eight of them are distributed north and northwest of the Orinoco where 90% of the human population lives and, hence, negative impact on the ecosystems is more evident. The status of conservation of these species was assessed by applying the criteria published by the World Conservation Union (IUCN), in 1994. Sixteen species and subspecies are proposed for inclusion in the Venezuelan Red Data Book, viz. four Polythoridae, four Megapodagrionidae, one Lestidae, one Pseudostigmatidae, four Gomphidae, one Aeshnidae and one Libellulidae. Of the evaluated taxa, one genus and seven species are Venezuelan endemics. Forest fires, deforestation, pollution, water catchment constructions and human invasion of protected areas are some of the main factors which threaten these taxa. Introduction Recently, Samways (1996) has shown that the new "IUCN Categories of Threat" (IUCN, 1994) work well with dragonflies (Odonata) in South Mrica.
