Potential geographic distribution and ecological niche of New World dobsonflies (Megaloptera: Corydalidae): the case of the Nearctic-Neotropical transition zone
Abstract:The dobsonflies (Megaloptera, Corydalidae) are an interesting group of insects, but among the New World dobsonflies, it is not known the effect of the Neartic-Neotropical transition zone on their biogeographic distribution. Here we studied at the species level, the records on the geographic range of the dobsonflies that occurred in and near the transition zone. We presented potential geographic distributions based on ecological niche models for several species of dobsonflies. Results suggested that the geograp… Show more
