A Synopsis of the Neotropical Species of 'Aeshna NATALIA VON ELLENRIEDER Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County A SYNOPSIS OF THE NEOTROPICAL SPECIES OF ‘AESHNA’ FABRICIUS: THE GENUS RHIONAESCHNA FÖRSTER (ODONATA: AESHNIDAE) von Ellenrieder, N., 2003. A synopsis of the Neotropical species of ‘Aeshna’ Fabricius: The Genus Rhionaeschna Förster (Odonata: Aeshnidae). – Tijdschrift voor Entomologie 146: 67- 207, figs. 1-468, tabs. 1-3. [ISSN 0040-7496]. Published 1 June 2003. This study includes a revisionary, phylogenetic and biogeographical analysis of Neotropical com- ponents of Aeshna Fabricius characterized by a midventral tubercle on abdominal sternum I. Phylogenetic relationships of the Neotropical species of Aeshna were inferred based on 39 adult characters. Ingroup taxa included 68 out of the 85 species currently assigned to Aeshna, and two species each of Andaeshna De Marmels and Anaciaeschna Selys. Oreaeschna dictatrix Lieftinck was chosen as outgroup. The strict consensus tree obtained after successive weighting revealed that Aeshna is not monophyletic; some of its species are more closely related to Anaciaeschna or Andaeschna. The name Aeshna should consequently be restricted to the Holarctic group includ- ing the type species Aeshna grandis Fabricius. In the present synopsis the generic name Rhion- aeschna Förster is assigned to the New World group characterized by the presence of a conical tu- bercle on abdominal sternum I, comprising 39 species formerly assigned to Aeshna. The synopsis includes keys to adults of both sexes, diagnoses, biological notes, distribution maps and more than 400 diagnostic illustrations. Rhionaeschna demarmelsi sp. n. is described, R. maita Förster is considered a junior synonym of R. brevifrons (Hagen), R. peralta (Ris) is considered a valid species, not a synonym of R. variegata (Fabricius), R. planaltica (Calvert) is raised to specific rank, ‘Aeshna’ williamsoniana Calvert, formerly included in the subgenus Hesperaeschna Cock- erell, is excluded from Rhionaeschna, and lectotypes are designated for R. maita, R. intricata (Martin), R. multicolor (Hagen), R. bonariensis (Rambur), R. diffinis (Rambur), and R. peralta. Females of three species and larvae of 16 species are still unknown. Rhionaeschna occurs from southern Argentina to southern Canada, but is primarily Neotropical with its highest diversity along the Andean mountain range between Venezuela and Bolivia. It is absent from the Amazon basin, only three species occur north to the Neotropical region. The sister group of Rhionaeschna includes some African species of ‘Aeshna’ (A. rileyi Calvert, A. subpupillata McLachlan and A. moori Pinhey). Rhionaeschna plus the African clade constitute the sister group of Andaeshna, Anaciaeschna, Anax Leach, Hemianax Selys and several species of ‘Aeshna’ of uncertain affinities (i.e. A. affinis Vander Linden, A. brevistyla Rambur, A. ellioti Kirby, A. mixta Latreille, A. isoceles Müller and A. williamsoniana); the phylogenetic relationships within this complex are not yet known and their resolution is beyond the scope of this study. Rhionaeschna is absent from the Brazilian shield. Its related species and genera (‘A.’ rileyi, ‘A.’ subpupillata, ‘A.’ moori in Africa; ‘A.’ brevistyla in Australia and New Zealand, Andaeshna in the Andes and ‘A.’ williamsoniana in Central America, ‘A.’ isoceles and highest species numbers of Anaciaeschna, Hemianax and Anax species in the Indo-Australian region) display a low diversity in Africa, which suggests a trans-Pa- cific rather than trans-Atlantic (Gondwanian) track, as has been hypothesized for other groups of similarly distributed odonates.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The ultimate stadium larva of Neuraeschna claviforcipata is described and illustrated based on an F-0 exuvia of a reared female from northern Amazonas State, Brazil. This larva differs from the other two known larvae of the genus in lacking the spiny lateral prominence of the mandible, and in having only a short spine each side of the median cleft of the prementum; labium is shorter and cercus longer. Noteworthy is the presence of a hair brush on each occipital lobe behind mesal angle of compound eye. The larva was found in a small blackwater pool with abundant leaf litter in an open, “campina”-type habitat, with sandy soil and low, bushy vegetation. Key words: Amazon, Anisoptera, aquatic insect, dragonfly, taxonomy Introduction The Neotropical genus Neuraeschna Hagen, 1867, includes by now fifteen species, mainly with occurrence in the north of South America (Garrison et al.

  • Arizona Wildlife Notebook
    ARIZONA WILDLIFE CONSERVATION ARIZONA WILDLIFE NOTEBOOK GARRY ROGERS Praise for Arizona Wildlife Notebook “Arizona Wildlife Notebook” by Garry Rogers is a comprehensive checklist of wildlife species existing in the State of Arizona. This notebook provides a brief description for each of eleven (11) groups of wildlife, conservation status of all extant species within that group in Arizona, alphabetical listing of species by common name, scientific names, and room for notes. “The Notebook is a statewide checklist, intended for use by wildlife watchers all over the state. As various individuals keep track of their personal observations of wildlife in their specific locality, the result will be a more selective checklist specific to that locale. Such information would be vitally useful to the State Wildlife Conservation Department, as well as to other local agencies and private wildlife watching groups. “This is a very well-documented snapshot of the status of wildlife species – from bugs to bats – in the State of Arizona. Much of it should be relevant to neighboring states, as well, with a bit of fine-tuning to accommodate additions and deletions to the list. “As a retired Wildlife Biologist, I have to say Rogers’ book is perhaps the simplest to understand, yet most comprehensive in terms of factual information, that I have ever had occasion to peruse. This book should become the default checklist for Arizona’s various state, federal and local conservation agencies, and the basis for developing accurate local inventories by private enthusiasts as well as public agencies. "Arizona Wildlife Notebook" provides a superb starting point for neighboring states who may wish to emulate Garry Rogers’ excellent handiwork.

SGMA seeks to achieve sustainability, which is defined as the absence of several undesirable results, including “depletions of interconnected surface water that have significant and unreasonable adverse impacts on beneficial users of surface water” (Water Code §10721). The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is a science-based, nonprofit organization with a mission to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. Like humans, plants and animals often rely on groundwater for survival, which is why TNC helped develop, and is now helping to implement, SGMA. Earlier this year, we launched the Groundwater Resource Hub, which is an online resource intended to help make it easier and cheaper to address environmental requirements under SGMA. As a first step in addressing when depletions might have an adverse impact, The Nature Conservancy recommends identifying the beneficial users of surface water, which include environmental users. This is a critical step, as it is impossible to define “significant and unreasonable adverse impacts” without knowing what is being impacted. To make this easy, we are providing this letter and the accompanying documents as the best available science on the freshwater species within the boundary of your groundwater sustainability agency (GSA).

G. bartai sp. n. is described from 5 specimens (holotype 6 and allotype 9; Peru, Madre de Dios, Explorer’s Inn; deposited in the NMNH, Washington, DC, USA) from southern Peru. It is character- 6 ized by very small size, unmarked thorax, straight cerci, and abdomen constricted in and unconstricted in 9. INTRODUCTION Discovery of a small brown species of Gynacantha, apparently undescribed, from southern Peru prompted us to examine specimens of all the small New World species of Gynacantha as well as other small neotropical aeshnids. The informationin WIL- LIAMSON (1923) and the collections of R.W. Garrison and D.R. Paulson were suffi- cient for us to carry outthis analysis. We have made no comparisons with the 65 nomi- nal species of Gynacantha in the Old World(21 inAfrica, 35 inAsia, and9 in Australia, New Guinea, and Pacific islands), as there is no indication the two hemispheres have any species in common. STATUS OF SUBAESCHNA The only other neotropical aeshnid that seems closely relatedto Gynacantha because D.R.
