Most insects have a complex life cycle with ecologically different larval and adult stages. We
present an ontogenetic perspective to analyze and summarize the complex life cycle of …

The Third Edition of Ecology and Classification of North American Freshwater Invertebrates
continues the tradition of in-depth coverage of the biology, ecology, phylogeny, and …

Adaptive changes in reproductive effort (RE) of parasitized hosts may account for both
inverse and positive relationships between host reproductive output and incidence or …

The relationship between body size and fitness components in odonates was examined
using a meta‐analysis of 33 published studies. There was a positive and significant overall …

Milkweed leaf beetles (MLBs; Labidomera clivicollis Chrysomelidae) are parasitized by a
subelytral mite, Chrysomelobia labidomerae (Tarsonemina: Podapolipidae). We show that …

In this study we assessed whether individuals of the damselfly species Ischnura elegans
and Coenagrion puella that moved between ponds differed in their mean characteristics …

Little is known about odonate ecology and phenology in warm mediterranean climates
where most wetlands are intermittent. We identified variables associated with the presence …

We compared populations of a forest damselfly—Calopteryx maculata—in two kinds of
landscapes. In fragmented landscapes, forested foraging patches were separated from …

We conducted a field study and a laboratory experiment to test whether ectoparasitic mites,
Macrocheles subbadius, generate parasite‐mediated sexual selection in the Sonoran desert …

Sexual selection has been suggested to accelerate local adaptation and promote
evolutionary rescue through several ecological and genetic mechanisms. Condition …
