Article I.--The Dragon-flies (Odonata) of Illinois, vith Descriptions of the Immature Stages. Part I. Petal uridte, Msrhnidce, and Gomphida*. By James G. Needham And Charles A. Hart. Introduction. The present paper is the combined product of studies made by the authors upon the collections of the Illinois State Laboratory of Natural History, including those of the Biological Station at Havana, and by Professor Needham on his private collection. The state collections comprise the results of many years' work in all parts of Illinois, including five successive years of field observation and collection at the Illinois Biological Station on the Illinois River at Havana; specimens obtained by Professor H. Garman from the Mississippi and related waters at Quincy, Ill. (Garman, '90); a large series from the small lakes of northeastern Illinois; and collections made by Professor Forbes in Yellowstone Park and its vicinity (Forbes, '93) and from lakes Geneva and Delavan, Wis., under the auspices of the U. S. Fish Commission. Professor Needham's private collection used in the preparation of this paper contains many Illinois and New York species, reared by him to the imago, and others contributed by correspondents, particularly by Mr. F. G. Schaupp in Texas, Mr. Adolph Hempel in Florida, and Mr. F. C. Willard in Arizona. The preparation of the introductory matter, biological discussions, and keys to the nymphs has devolved upon Mr. Hart, while the descriptive matter, with a few exceptions, was prepared by Professor Needham. We are indebted to Mr. C. C. Adams for abundant data on the occurrence of the imagos in Illinois derived from his large private collection, and also for work on the keys to the genera of imagos. We are under special obligation to...

Book Dragonflies and Damselflies in Your Pocket

Download or read book Dragonflies and Damselflies in Your Pocket written by Ann Johnson and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 2009-05 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as more and more people enjoy watching birds and butterflies, watching the many shimmering dragonflies and damselflies—collectively called odonates, from Odonata, the name of this order of aquatic insects—has become a popular pastime. Now Dragonflies and Damselflies in Your Pocket introduces us to 50 of the showiest odonates of the Upper Midwest. Ann Johnson’s text is clear and informative and her photographs are stunning; it is impossible to look at them without wanting to head out for the nearest stream and search for the living insects. In addition to providing useful general information about broad-winged damsels, spreadwings, pond damsels, darners, clubtails, cruisers, emeralds, and skimmers, she includes common and scientific names, sizes, general flight seasons, and the best habitats in which to find each species: rocky rivers, wetlands, ponds, still waters, and so on. With their extremely large eyes, elongated transparent wings, long and slender abdomens, and prehensile extendible jaws, dragonflies and damselflies are efficient hunters and quick, darting fliers. Their beauty and their behavior make them delightful subjects for birdwatchers and other nature lovers. Dragonflies and Damselflies in Your Pocket will greatly enhance your appreciation of these winged marvels.

Book The Dragonflies of Europe

Download or read book The Dragonflies of Europe written by Richard Robinson Askew and published by Brill. This book was released on 2004 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the only book written in English to cover the entire European fauna, comprising 124 species of resident damselfly (Zygoptera) and dragonfly (Anisoptera). In his Foreword to this revised edition, Professor Philip Corbet, Past-President of the Worldwide Dragonfly Association and doyen of British odonatists, states that, as a standard reference work, "it will continue to contribute importantly to the progress of odonatology." The author has made a few corrections to his original text, which covered 114 species of Odonata breeding in Europe, and has added a new Preface and an updating Supplement.

Book Dragonflies

    Book Details:
  • Author : Philip S. Corbet
  • Publisher : Comstock Publishing Associates
  • Release : 1999
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 890 pages

Download or read book Dragonflies written by Philip S. Corbet and published by Comstock Publishing Associates. This book was released on 1999 with total page 890 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the most ancient and powerful of insects, dragonflies fascinate scientists and nonspecialists--in part because they are large enough for the behavior of individual insects to be observed and interpreted. Indeed, so much useful information exists about dragonflies that they serve as valuable models for interpreting the behavior and ecology of other taxa. Philip S. Corbet has devoted a lifetime to their study. His book A Biology of Dragonflies has been a standard text for more than thirty-five years. This latest book establishes a new benchmark for the Odonata, providing a comprehensive, critical review of past and current knowledge--both published and unpublished--about species from all biogeographical regions in both functional and evolutionary contexts. The volume emphasizes the diversity found in dragonfly behavior as well as unifying patterns. It describes the behavioral strategies that influence the fitness of individuals in physical and biotic environments and in all stages of the life cycle, and identifies the biological principles reflected in those strategies. The book also examines behavior associated with processes such as habitat selection, foraging, seasonal regulation, migration, territoriality, mating, and sperm competition, emphasizing the interdependence of all developmental stages as well as relationships among dragonflies and other animals, including humans. Dragonflies represents a remarkably thorough and searching appraisal of a single taxon, featuring 252 drawings and black-and-white photographs, 96 color plates, nearly 100 appendix tables, and more than 4,000 bibliographic citations to original sources. The wealth of information and its integrated treatment will indisputably make the book the definitive source on dragonflies for years to come.

Book Dragonflies and Damselflies

Download or read book Dragonflies and Damselflies written by Alex Córdoba-Aguilar and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-08-28 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dragonflies and Damselflies documents the latest advances in odonate biology and relates these to a broader ecological and evolutionary research agenda. Despite being one of the smallest insect orders, dragonflies offer a number of advantages for both laboratory and field studies. In fact, they have been crucial to the advancement of our understanding of insect ecology and evolution. This book provides a critical summary of the major advances in these fields. Contributions from many of the leading researchers in dragonfly biology offer new perspectives and paradigms as well as additional, unpublished, data. The editor has carefully assembled a mix of theoretical and applied chapters (including those addressing conservation and monitoring) and achieves a balance of emerging and established research topics, providing suggestions for future study in each case. This accessible text is not about dragonflies per se but an essential source of knowledge that describes how different sets of evolutionary and ecological principles/ideas have been tested on a particular taxon. It will therefore be suitable for graduate students and researchers in entomology, evolutionary biology, population and behavioural ecology, and conservation biology. It will of course be of particular interest and use to those working on insects and an indispensable reference text for odonate biologists.
