Dear colleagues,
I am writing to ask you whether you will be able to help me, providing data
of some odonates. I am currently doing a comparative analysis to test
different hypotheses related to the evolution of genitalia and reproductive
behavior in the Zygoptera and Anisoptera. I will be very happy if you can
provide me with the following data of the species that appear below: (1)
wing and body length (two individuals at least for each sex - adults only),
(2) type of habitat used by adults (pond or river), (3) locality of those
animals from which you provide the size or habitat (the closest big city
and country is fine), (4) whether males are territorial or not (if you are
not sure about this, do not guess please and simply ignore this issue) and
(5) if there is sexual dimorphism in color (e.g. females having a different
body or wing colour than males).
A PhD student, Martín A. Serrano-Meneses (is part of his dissertation), and
