  • Altitudinal variation of wing length and wing area in Libellula quadrimaculata (Odonata: Libellulidae)
    Publication . Casanueva, Patricia; Sanz Requena, José-Francisco; Hernández, M. Ángeles; Ortega, Silvia; Nunes, Luisa; Campos, Francisco
    The area and length of the right fore and hind wings and the abdomen length were analysed in specimens from two Iberian populations of Libellula quadrimaculata Linnaeus, 1758, one on a plateau (782 m a.s.l.) and another in the mountains (1 909 m a.s.l.), with a view to ascertaining whether their morphometric characteristics vary with altitude. Allometric relationships in terms of length and area of the fore and hind wings of both populations were found. The wings are longer and have a greater area in plateau specimens whereas the length of the abdomen did not vary between populations. Between the populations there was an overlap in the wing length measurements. The significance of these parameters in aiding the dragonflies’ flight capacity and hence the effects on their lifestyle under different environmental conditions is discussed.

  • Selección de sustrato de emergencia por Cordulegaster boltonii (Donovan, 1807) (Odonata: Cordulegastridae) en un río del centro de la Península Ibérica
    Publication . Casanueva, Patricia; Campos, Francisco; Velasco, Tatiana; Sanz, Germán; Nunes, Luisa
    Se analizan los sustratos de emergencia de Cordulegaster boltonii en un río del centro de la Península Ibérica. Para ello se recogieron exuvias en un tramo de 60 m de longitud. El 86% de las exuvias estaban sobre vegetales y las restantes sobre rocas del cauce. En la zona analizada las larvas seleccionaron positivamente para emerger plantas de la familia Cyperaceae, principalmente Carex y Eleocharis. Ninguna exuvia se localizó en árboles, tanto troncos como raíces fuera del agua.
