Agriocnemis Lepida Sp. Nov. from the Annamite Range in Lao PDR (Odonata: Coenagrionidae) Agriocnemis lepida sp. nov. from Lao PDR 1st June 2020177 Agriocnemis lepida sp. nov. from the Annamite Range in Lao PDR (Odonata: Coenagrionidae) Malte Seehausen Museum Wiesbaden, Naturhistorische Sammlungen, Friedrich-Ebert-Allee 2, 65185 Wiesbaden, Germany; <[email protected]> Received 4th February 2020; revised and accepted 5th April 2020 Abstract. Agriocnemis lepida sp. nov. is described and figured (holotype ♂: 20-ii-2003, Lao PDR, Khammouan Province, 2.5 km WNW Ban Tathot, Tham Kamouk, 17.6316°N, 105.1250°E, 200 m a.s.l., P. Jäger leg.; deposited at the Forschungsinstitut und Naturmuseum Senckenberg, Frankfurt am Main, Germany). Additionally, illustrations of the male append- ages and the posterior lobe of the prothorax of A. clauseni, A. minima, and A. nana as well as photographs and a Selys watercolour of the female holotype of A. carmelita are provided. Agriocnemis carmelita is shortly discussed with references to the genus Mortonagrion. Further key words. Damselfly, Zygoptera, new species, cobra-hood, Agriocnemis carmelita, Mortonagrion Introduction The genus Agriocnemis Selys, 1877, comprises 44 species (Schorr & Paul- son 2020) distributed in Africa, Asia, and Australia. However, some of the species are only known from the type series, and at least the status of A. cor­ beti Kumar & Prasad, 1978, is considered doubtful (Mitra 2010a). Most recently, A. kalinga Nair & Subramanian, 2014, had been described from India as well as A. canuango Dijkstra, 2015, and A. toto Dijkstra, 2015, from Angola. At least seven species of Agriocnemis are known to be native to mainland South-East Asia. These are A. pygmaea (Rambur, 1842), A. femina (Brauer, 1868), A. lacteola Selys, 1877, A. minima (Selys, 1877), A. carmelita Selys, 1877, which is only known from the female holotype collected in »Annam« (today’s Central Vietnam), A. nana Laidlaw, 1914, and A. clauseni Fraser, 1922 (Hämäläinen & Pinratana 1999; Dow 2011b). Yokoi & Souphan- thong (2014) listed A. dabreui Fraser, 1920, A. femina, A. minima, A. nana, Odonatologica 49(1/2) 2020: 177-190Odonatologica – DOI:10.5281/zenodo.3823341 49(1/2) 2020: 177-190 178 M. Seehausen and A. pygmaea from Lao People’s Democratic Republic. However, the corre- sponding records of the Indian A. dabreui need verification because records from Thailand and Malaysia actually refer to A. minima, and it seems likely that this is the case for Lao PDR and Vietnam as well (Mitra 2010b ). Thus, at least four species of Agriocnemis are known to occur in Lao PDR. During studies of a collection from Lao PDR a male Agriocnemis remained unidentified (Seehausen 2018). Due to further research and comparisons it turned out to be an unknown species, which is described here. Material and methods Only a single male of the new species could be studied, which is why pre- dominantly male specimens of congenerics were examined for comparison.

Eight locations were selected, of which sixteen Odonata species were recorded. In total, eleven dragonfly and five damselfly species were identified from Thiruvannamalai district, Tamil Nadu, India.Pantala flavescens, Diplacodes trivialis, Brachythemis contaminata and Ischnura aurora were recorded from all eight locations. Trithemis pallidinervis and Agriocnemis pygmaea were recorded from seven locations except from the farm pond and the open stretch area. Rhyothemis variegata was recorded only at the open stretch area. The results clearly show that, Odonates have specific habitat preferences for their growth and development. Four families Libellulidae, Gomphidae, Aeshnidae and Coenagrionidae were observed and collected during the study. Libellulidae were the most abundant family (56.25%) and comprised of 9 species, followed by Coenagrionidae (31.25%) with 5 species.

  • Taxonomy and Conservation Concerns of the Critically Endangered Roppaneura Beckeri, a Phytotelm-Breeding Damselfly in the Southern Brazilian Atlantic Forest
    Bulletin of Insectology 74 (1): 91-101, 2021 ISSN 1721-8861 eISSN 2283-0332 Taxonomy and conservation concerns of the critically endangered Roppaneura beckeri, a phytotelm-breeding damselfly in the southern Brazilian Atlantic Forest Leonardo POLIZELI1,2, Ângelo Parise PINTO2 1Undergraduate course of Ciências Biológicas, Universidade Federal do Paraná, Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil 2Laboratory of Systematics on Aquatic Insects (LABSIA), Departamento de Zoologia, Universidade Federal do Pa- raná, Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil Abstract Phytotelm-breeding Odonata are rare: from the 6,300 known species of these charismatic freshwater organisms, only a small number of about 50 develop in phytotelmata habitats. Mainly members of the damselflies (suborder Zygoptera) are dependent on this special type of environment. The small coenagrionid Roppaneura beckeri Santos (Odonata Coenagrionidae Protoneurinae), a damselfly endemic to the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, is the only known Odonata breeding in the terrestrial umbellifers of Eryngium floribundum (Cham. et Schltdl.). This is a species-specific association with a hostplant unparalleled in the order. It also is the only species within the subfamily Protoneurinae to occupy phytotelmata habitats. Here, we report on a population of R. beckeri rediscovered after 42 years and recorded for the first time from the southern Atlantic Forest from the state of Paraná. The morphology and the distribution of this species is reviewed and based on these primary data future conservation strategies are discussed. We suggest including R. beckeri as a priority species for dragonfly conservation policies due to its exclusive biological characteristics, evolutionary rele- vance, and occurrence in urban to peri-urban landscapes. Key words: conservation, Plateau Paranaense, Zygoptera, Coenagrionidae, urban insects.

(Eugregarinorida: Actinocephalidae: Actinocephalinae) from the Ebony Jewelwing Damselfly Calopteryx maculata (Zygoptera: Calopterygidae) in Southeast Nebraska, U.S.A.: Implications for Mechanical Prey–Vector Stabilization of Exogenous Gregarine Development RICHARD E. CLOPTON Department of Natural Science, Peru State College, Peru, Nebraska 68421, U.S.A. (e-mail: [email protected]) ABSTRACT: Calyxocephalus karyopera g. nov., sp. nov. (Apicomplexa: Eugregarinorida: Actinocephalidae: Actino- cephalinae) is described from the Ebony Jewelwing Damselfly Calopteryx maculata (Odonata: Zygoptera: Calopteryigidae) collected along Turkey Creek in Johnson County, Nebraska, U.S.A. Calyxocephalus gen. n. is distinguished by the form of the epimerite complex: a terminal thick disk or linearly crateriform sucker with a distal apopetalus calyx of petaloid lobes and a short intercalating diamerite (less than half of the total holdfast length). The epimerite complex is conspicuous until association and syzygy. Association occurs immediately before syzygy and is cephalolateral and biassociative. Gametocysts are spherical with a conspicuous hyaline coat. Lacking conspicuous sporoducts they dehisce by simple rupture. Oocysts are axially symmetric, hexagonal dipyramidic in shape with slight polar truncations, bearing 6 equatorial spines, 1 at each equatorial vertex and 6 terminal spines obliquely inserted at each pole, 1 at each vertex created by polar truncation. The ecology of the C. karyopera–C. maculata host–parasite system provides a mechanism for mechanical prey–vector stabilization of exogenous gregarine development and isolation. KEY WORDS: Odonata, Zygoptera, Calopteryx maculata, damselfly, Apicomplexa, Eugregarinida, Actinocephalidae, Actinocephalinae, Calyxocephalus karyopera, new genus, new species, parasite evolution, biodiversity, species isolation, vector, transmission.

Copyright (FAMIL K.A.Subramanian,Y 2005.: COENAGRIONIDAE) MARSH DARTS (FAMILY: COENAGRIONIDAE) Marsh darts are slender and small damselflies with varied colouration. These non-iridescent damselflies rest with wings closed over their body. The wings are transparent and rounded at the tip. The long and slender abdomen is slightly longer than the hind wing. Some of the smallest damselflies like the Golden Dartlet (Ischnura aurora) is from this family. Marsh Darts are found throughout the world. World over, this family is represented by about 1147 species. Within Indian limits, 65 species are known and in peninsular India 25 species are recorded. The marsh darts breed in a variety of aquatic habitats like ponds, marshes, streams and Photo:E.Kunhikrishnan rivers. Though most of the species are closely associated with aquatic habitats, some Golden Dartlets mating species like the Common Marsh Dart (Ceriagrion coromandelianum) can be found far away from any aquatic habitat.
