  • Odonata: Coenagrionidae
    J. Acad. Entomol. Soc. 13: 49-53 (2017) NOTE First occurrence of Enallagma pictum (Scarlet Bluet) (Odonata: Coenagrionidae) in Canada and additional records of Celithemis martha (Martha’s Pennant) (Odonata: Libellulidae) in New Brunswick: possible climate-change induced range extensions of Atlantic Coastal Plain Odonata Donald F. McAlpine, H. Scott Makepeace, Dwayne L. Sabine, Paul M. Brunelle, Jim Bell, and Gail Taylor Over the past two decades there has been a surge of interest in the Odonata (dragonflies and damselflies) of Maritime Canada and adjacent regions, with much new information accrued (Brunelle, 1997; Brunelle 1999; Brunelle 2010). Much of this increased interest in the region can be attributed to the efforts of a single investigator and his collaborators in the Atlantic Dragonfly Inventory Project (ADIP; see Appendix 2 in Brunelle 2010) and the Maine Damselfly and Dragonfly Survey. In spite of the extensive database of records for the Odonata of the region that now exists (35,000 records for the Maritimes, a further 30,000 for Maine), new discoveries continue to be made (Catling 2002; Sabine et al. 2004; Cook and Bridgehouse 2005; Klymko 2007; Catling et al. 2009), testament to continuing survey effort and the natural and anthropogenic changes in regional biodiversity always in process. Here we document expansion in the geographic range of two Atlantic Coastal Plain Odonata; Enallagma pictum Morse (Scarlet Bluet) (Odonata: Coenagrionidae), shown to be resident in New Brunswick and new for Canada, and Celithemis martha Williamson (Martha’s Pennant) (Odonata: Libellulidae), a species known previously from a single occurrence (Klymko 2007); and, comment on the significance of these records in the light of climate warming now in process.

    Miss Mattie Wadsworth (1862-1943): Early Woman Author in Entomological News by Harold B. White, III Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry University of Delaware Newark, Delaware 19716 and John V. Calhoun Research Associate McGuire Center for Lepidoptera and Biodiversity Florida Museum of Natural History, University of Florida Gainesville, Florida 32611 Last up-dated: 31 August 2009 Written for the150th Anniversary of the American Entomological Society To be published in Transactions of the American Entomological Society Key Words: Philip P. Calvert, Edward B. Williamson, Annie Trumbull Slosson, Odonata, Celithemis martha. ABSTRACT Miss Mattie Wadsworth, an amateur entomologist from rural Maine, stands out as one of the early women authors in Entomological News. Wadsworth‘s correspondence with Philip P. Calvert, prominent and longtime member of the American Entomological Society, shows Calvert‘s important role in cultivating her entomological interests. Celithemis martha (Odonata: Libellulidae) was named in honor of Wadsworth by E. B. Williamson. Mattie Wadsworth ms. 2 INTRODUCTION Mattie (Martha) Wadsworth was one of the first women to publish in Entomological News. Born on July 26, 1862, she was an amateur entomologist who lived in rural Maine. Her short paper on the dragonflies of Manchester, Maine, appeared on page 36 of volume I, number 3 (Wadsworth, 1890a). At that time, the field of entomology was almost exclusively dominated by men as exemplified by the membership of the American Entomological Society. Although two women members were elected between 1863 and 1865, only one additional woman was listed among the 254 members as of the fiftieth anniversary of the Society in 1909 (Cresson, 1909).

  • Dragonflies September 2008
    Learning Laguna Field Notes: Dragonflies September 2008 This edition is based on a Continuing Education event taught by Kathy & Dave Biggs. Dragonfly is a type of insect belonging to the order Odonata. As such, they have 3 prominent body parts—a head, a thorax to which the wings (in this case 4) and 6 legs are attached, and an abdomen. Their front and rear wings are not linked together, but can be operated independently. It is characterized by large multifaceted eyes, two pairs of strong, transparent wings, and an elongated body. Dragonflies typi- cally eat gnats, mosquitoes, and other small insects like flies, bees, and even butterflies. They are valued as predators, since they help control populations of potentially harmful insects and “pests.” Eight Spotted Skimmer - male (Libellula forensis) Mark A. Chappell Some Dragonfly “Wow” Facts http://faculty.ucr.edu/~chappell/INW/arthropods/8spot1.jpg • Because of their compound eyes, they can see in all directions and can see flickers of movement 15 times better than humans. • Predators like birds, especially the Black Phoebe, will eat them, but will drop the wings as they have barbs • In most dragonfly species, the eyes touch • Their legs are studded with spikes and they capture prey by clasping it in their legs. • Dragonflies usually attack prey from below • Like most bird species, males are more colorful that females • In the United States dragonflies and damselflies are sought out as a hobby similar to birding and butterflying, known as oding. Oding, from the dragonfly’s scientific order name: Odo- nata. • Dragonflies are survivors from before the dinosaur period.

MOSKOWITZ A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Entomology Written under the direction of Dr. Michael L. May And approved by _____________________________________ _____________________________________ _____________________________________ _____________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey January, 2016 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION THE LIFE HISTORY, BEHAVIOR AND CONSERVATION OF THE TIGER SPIKETAIL DRAGONFLY (CORDULEGASTER ERRONEA HAGEN) IN NEW JERSEY by DAVID PAUL MOSKOWITZ Dissertation Director: Dr. Michael L. May This dissertation explores the life history and behavior of the Tiger Spiketail dragonfly (Cordulegaster erronea Hagen) and provides recommendations for the conservation of the species. Like most species in the genus Cordulegaster and the family Cordulegastridae, the Tiger Spiketail is geographically restricted, patchily distributed with its range, and a habitat specialist in habitats susceptible to disturbance. Most Cordulegastridae species are also of conservation concern and the Tiger Spiketail is no exception. However, many aspects of the life history of the Tiger Spiketail and many other Cordulegastridae are poorly understood, complicating conservation strategies. In this dissertation, I report the results of my research on the Tiger Spiketail in New Jersey. The research to investigate life history and behavior included: larval and exuvial sampling; radio- telemetry studies; marking-resighting studies; habitat analyses; observations of ovipositing females and patrolling males, and the presentation of models and insects to patrolling males.
