New data on the distribution of Large Golden Ringed Dragonfly (Cordulegaster heros Theischinger, 1979) (Odonata) in Zselic hills

Abstract

The earliest record of this species is dated back to 2005. Intensive investigations, habitat mapping and ecological research of C. heros were started in 2008. Our researches were focused on the larval instars and also on the conservation of the habitats. Most of the discussed C. heros populations were strong with high abundance. In the present study, we publish the results of the records done in 2008 and 2009.
