“…3) and included two Indomalayan-Australasian species ( I. aurora and I. rubilio ), both of them with a similar and unique abdominal coloration. In these species, the first five male abdominal segments are orange, followed by the sixth black and the seventh and eighth blue segments ( Papazian et al 2007; Schneider et al 2015). There are slight colour differences between the two.…”

“…Thus, the species was documented to emerge only at the previously known sites (Belančić et al, 2008;Mihoković, 2010;Španić et al, 2014 Belančić et al (2008) described species habitats in Croatia as predominantly natural Mediterranean lakes, yet a number of studies conducted in southern Europe and the Middle East have reported the species' occurrence in the man-made reservoirs with concrete or stony banks lacking aquatic vegetation (e.g. Kalkman & Van Pelt, 2006;Stille et al, 2014;Schneider & Dumont, 2015;Schneider & Ikemeyer, 2016), which could be a substitute for the former habitats. Still, none of them have reported successful life cycle completion in such habitats.…”

Na akumulaciji Vlačine, smještenoj u dinaridskoj ekoregiji (ER 5, Dinaridski zapadni Balkan) u Hrvatskoj, zabilježeno je ukupno 12 vrsta vretenaca. U radu su prikazani i raspravljeni okolišni uvjeti na istraživanom staništu, prvenstveno struktura vegetacije i fizikalno-kemijski čimbenici vode. Stanišni uvjeti akumulacije bili su pogodni za uspješno završavanje životnog ciklusa mediteranskih vretenaca poput vrsta Lindenia tetraphylla i Selysiothemis nigra. Zabilježeni svlakovi vrste L. tetraphylla predstavljaju novi nalaz razmnožavanja ove vrste na sjeverozapadnoj granici njene rasprostranjenosti.

Macroevolutionary Origin and Adaptive Function of a Polymorphic Female Signal Involved in Sexual Conflict

Intersexual signals that reveal developmental or mating status in females have evolved repeatedly in many animal lineages. Such signals have functions in sexual conflict over mating and can therefore influence sexually antagonistic coevolution. However, we know little about how female signal development modifies male mating harassment and thereby sexual conflict. Here, we combine phylogenetic comparative analyses of a color polymorphic damselfly genus (Ischnura) with behavioral experiments in one target species to investigate the evolutionary origin and current adaptive function of a developmental female color signal. Many Ischnura species have multiple female color morphs, which include a male-colored morph (male mimics) and one or two female morphs that differ markedly from males (heterochrome females). In Ischnura elegans, males and male-mimicking females express a blue abdominal patch throughout postemergence life. Using phenotypic manipulations, we show that the developmental expression of this signaling trait in heterochrome females reduces premating harassment prior to sexual maturity. Across species this signal evolved repeatedly, but in heterochrome females its origin is contingent on the signal expressed by co-occurring male-mimicking females. Our results suggest that the co-option of a male-like trait to a novel female antiharassment function plays a key role in sexual conflict driven by premating interactions.
