International Journal of Odonatology (IJO) is aimed at providing a publication outlet for the growing number of students of Odonata. It will address subjects such as the ecology, ethology, physiology, genetics, taxonomy, phylogeny and geographic distribution of species.
Seit 1987 gelten die Hoch- und Flachmoore in der Schweiz als geschützt, dank der Rothenthurm-Initiative. Die Moorlandschaft Nummer 1 Rothenthurm–Altmatt liegt im Kanton Schwyz und es ist mehr als verständlich, dass daraus eine besondere Verantwortung erwächst. Die Schwyzerische Naturforschende Gesellschaft nimmt diese Verantwortung wahr: Sie liefert mit der vorliegenden Publikation eine Übersicht zur Verbreitung, zum Zustand und zur steten Veränderung der Schwyzer Moore.
Freshwater habitats and biodiversity in the Arabian Peninsula are unique and highly valued for the essential role they play in people's survival, as well as that of its native flora and fauna. This project aims to provide an accurate picture of the present conservation status and distribution of Arabian freshwater species, as well as to identify the main threats that affect them and action requirements for their successful long term conservation.
Our knowledge of species diversity within the inland waters of Indo-Burma is poorly documented and the region remains relatively under-surveyed. In this volume we aim to address this knowledge gap and present the most up-to-date information on the distribution and extinction risk of freshwater species in all inland water ecosystems across the Indo-Burma hotspot, and where appropriate, the reasons behind their declining status. This represents the most comprehensive assessment yet of freshwater biodiversity at the species level for this part of the world.
This report presents a review of the conservation status of 165 species of dragonflies found in the Mediterranean basin, according to the criteria of the regional IUCN Red List. It identifies the species that are threatened with extinction at the regional level so that they can take appropriate conservation measures to improve their status.
