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.

Particularly successful were isolations and sequence determinations of more than 30 members of the adipokinetic hormone/red pigment-concentrating hormone (AKH/RPCH) family of peptides. This brief overview describes the techniques used to obtain data on purifi­ cation and structure such as high performance liquid chromatography, Edman sequencing and mass spectrometry. Moreover, a short account on the precursors and on the multiple functions of the peptides of the AKH/RPCH family in various crustacean and insect species is given.

  • Description of the Final Stadium Larva (Odonata: Libellulidae)
    ------- Received 22 May 2003; revised and accepted 06 October 2003------- Nesciothemis farinosa: description of the final stadium larva (Odonata: Libellulidae) Frank Suhling', Carsten Schutte' & Ole Muller' ' lnstitut fUr Geookologie, Technische Universitat Braunschweig, Langer Kamp 19c, D-381 02 Braunschweig, Germany. <e-mail [email protected]> ' Birkenweg 6d, D-15306 Libbenichen, Germany. Key words: Odonata, dragonfly, Nesciothemis farinosa, larval description, notes on ecology and development. ABSTRACT A written description and illustrations of the final stadium larva of Nesciothemis farinosa are presented, based on larvae and exuviae collected in Namibia. The larvae were reared in the laboratory until emergence. Additionally, information on larval microhabitat, behaviour and development is provided. INTRODUCTION The genus Nesciothemis Longfield, 1955 is composed of five species, N. farinosa (Forster, 1898), N. fitzgeraldi Longfield, 1955, N. minor Gambles, 1966, N. nigeriensis Gambles, 1966 and N. pujoli Pinhey, 1971 (Gambles 1966; Pinhey 1971; Dijkstra 2003) occurring in subsaharan continental Africa, Egypt and the southern Arabian Peninsula, with N. farinosa being the most widespread species, ranging from southern Africa to Egypt and Arabia (Dumont 1991; Schneider & Krupp 1993; Carfl & D'Andrea 1994; Samways 1999; Clausnitzer 2001). N. farinosa reported from western Africa (e.g. Ivory Coast, Tsuda 1991) are questionable, because they differ constantly from typical N. farinosa and might belong to N. pujoli (K.-D.B. Dijkstra in litt.). The larvae of all Nesciothemis species are hitherto not described. Here we describe the final stadium larva and exuvia of N. farinosa from material collected in Namibia. Additionally, information on the larval microhabitat, behaviour in the laboratory and develop­ ment is provided.

  • (Odonata, Anisoptera) 2. a Revision of the Genus Neurogomphus KAR.Sch, with the Description of Some Larvae
    Belgian Journal ofEntomology 6 (2004) : 91-239 Taxonomic studies on African Gomphidae (Odonata, Anisoptera) 2. A revision of the genus Neurogomphus KAR.scH, with the description of some larvae Roger CAMMAERTS Universite Libre de Bruxelles, Service de systematique et d'ecologie animates, CP 160/13, 50 av. F.D. Roosevelt, B-1050 Bruxelles, Belgium(e-mail: [email protected]). Abstract A revision of the genus Neurogomphus is presented. Seventeen species and two distinct subspecies are recognised, i.e. N. fuscifrons KARscH, 1890, N. agilis (MARTIN, 1908), N. martininus {LACROIX, 1921), N. uelensis SCHOUTEDEN, 1934, N. vicinus SCHOUTEDEN, 1934, N. wittei SCHOUTEDEN, 1934, N. chapini {KLOTS, 1944), N. featheri PINHEY, 1967, N. pallidus CAMMAERTS, 1967, N. pinheyi CAMMAERTS, 1968, N. angustisigna PINHEY, 1971, N. a/ius sp. n., N. paenuelensis sp. n., N. cocytius sp. n., N. zambeziensis sp. n., N. carlcooki sp. n., N. chapini lamtoensis subsp. n., N. dissimilis sp. n. and N. dissimilis malawiensis subsp. n. The genus is divided into two subgenera, of which Mastigogomphus (type-species: Oxygomphus chapini KLOTS, 1944) is new. Of the former described species, all but one (Karschiogomphus ghesquierei SCHOUTEDEN, 1934) remain valid, but their names were often erroneously applied to unrelated taxa. Synonymy lists give evidence of this great amount of confusion. Nevertheless, the accurate status of five of the taxa here recognised as well as of some females (N. sp. cf zambeziensis from Tanzania and sp. indet. A, B, C, D) awaits further collecting of material. Generic larval characters are specified for the first time and the larvae of some species are described, among others that of N.

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.

While this species is fairly common in the south and east of the Mediterranean, its European range is confined to Cyprus, the island of Rhodes and the south of the Iberian Peninsula. Here we report the first record of D. lefebvrii for Italy, which was captured near Cagli- ari (Sardinia) on 11.IX.2013. In October 2014, a population of the same species was observed at a small wetland on the island “Isola di San Pietro” (Sardinia). Here the observed sex ratio of D. lefebvrii was strongly biased in favour of females and only a single male was observed. Key words: Diplacodes lefebvrii, Libellulidae, Odonata, Sardinia, Italy.
