Ecography ECOG-03137 Pinkert, S., Dijkstr, K.-D Ecography ECOG-03137 Pinkert, S., Dijkstr, K.-D. B., Zeuss, D., Reudenbach, C., Brandl, R. and Hof, C. 2017. Evolutionary processes, dispersal limitation and climatic history shape current diversity patterns of European dragonflies. – Ecography doi: 10.1111/ecog.03137 Supplementary material 19 Appendix 1: Phylogenetic analysis 20 The backbone-topology was constructed according to the most comprehensive and recent phylogeny of European 21 dragonflies (Dijkstra and Kalkman 2012). Additional studies enabled resolving some of the remaining multifurcations 22 within the genera Cordulegaster (Froufe et al. 2014), Chalcolestes (i.e. Lestes parvidens and Lestes viridis), Coenagrion, 23 Erythromma (Dumont et al. 2010) and Trithemis (Damm et al. 2010). For the final version of the topology see Fig. A2. 24 In addition, sequences for up to nine different loci (COI, COII, ITS1, ITS2, 5.8S, 12S, 16S, 18S, 28S) and 121 species 25 were automatically compiled from GenBank repository with PYLOGENERATOR (Pearse and Purvis 2013, accessed 26 December 17th, 2015). Taxon sampling and GenBank accession numbers are given in Table A2. The data was aligned by 27 hand and with MUSCLE algorithm in MEGA (Tamura et al. 2013). For each alignment, we ran separate model-tests in 28 MEGA. Five different models of nucleotide substitution were selected according to highest Bayesian Information 29 Criterion scores (BIC; Table A3). After adjusting taxon similarity among alignments by replacing missing sequences with 30 blanks, we used BEAUTI (Drummond et al. 2012) to link the alignments and to integrate taxonomic information by 31 enforcing monophyly at 90 internal knots (see tree in Fig. A3). Branch-lengths were inferred with an estimated lognormal 32 relaxed molecular clock for 50 million MCMC simulations (Yule birth) with a Bayesian approach in BEAST (Drummond 33 et al. 2012). Statistics were sampled every 5,000th iteration. We used diagnostics in TRACER to determine the burn-in 34 based on the point of stationarity on the log-likelihood curves as well as split-frequencies and to evaluate the choice of 35 the right molecular clock according to the coefficient of variation. We used ANNOTATOR (Drummond et al. 2012) to 36 exclude an appropriate burn-in of 10% from the posterior sample, to summarize the statistics of the remaining trees and 37 to annotate this information to the tree with the highest clade credibility. Trees were visualized and formatted in FIGTREE 38 (Drummond et al. 2012). 39 40 Figure A1.

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.

My research has explored questions on the evolution of color signals, color vision, and flight morphology. I am particularly interested in understanding the evolution of color signals, how they are perceived by intended and unintended receivers and the role of these audiences in driving population and species divergence. I also study the evolution of flight morphology because wings are large conspicuous body surfaces that can be also used as motion signal vehicles for intra- and interspecific communication.

DuBois 1, Robbye Johnson2 and Shoun Putz3 ABSTRACT Nine adult specimens of Aeshna subarctica, a boreal dragonfly typically associated "ith muskeg wetlands, were collected from Black Lake and Bre­ itzman Lake in northwestern Wisconsin (Douglas County). Viable popula­ tions likely exist in both lakes. Oviposition by three females is described. This represents the first published report of A. subarctica for the state of Wisconsin. Because Black Lake lies on the border of Wisconsin and Min­ nesota, A. subarctica likely occurs in Minnesota as well. Further sampling of acidic peatland habitats for aquatic macroinvertebrates is recommended to document populations of northern at the southern periphery of their ranges.

Methods Our analyses are based on odonate distribution maps from two field guides that present the European ranges of dragonflies and damselflies in 1988 and 2006. We categorized species according to their preference for lentic or lotic habi- tats, and then assigned each species to a southern or a northern group according to the centre of its distribution. Shifts in northern range boundaries were calculated as the average distance between the 10 northernmost grid cells in 1988 and 2006. Range boundary shifts were also analysed with regard to prevalence, phenology, body size and wing size. Results Lentic species of the southern group expanded their range boundaries on average 115 km northwards per decade, whereas lotic species of the southern group on average did not change their range boundaries.

HABITAT It can be found in all kinds of habitats, whether they are bodies of water or not, as this is a migratory species. It is unknown if there is a breeding spot this species has in the Province of Málaga, but they are likely to mate in standing water bodies with plenty of vegetation on the riverbank (above all rushes and bulrushes). These can be perennial or temporary, such as small reservoirs and dams, artificial ponds, deserted quarries and polls in rivers and streams. WAY OF LIFE This species migrates from Africa and the Mediterranean to a large part of Europe, where it reaches Iceland (only this Odonata from that country has been seen here).
