DATABASE CONTENT AND FUNCTIONS

Species list: includes species classification and center of distribution
Size and dispersal: Body Size, Hind wing length, Body mass of larvae and adults, Relative dispersal activity
Food and habitat: Trophic level, Hunting abilities, Habitat preference
Reproduction: Hibernation, Activity Time, Reproduction time

The database allows for comprehensive and complex search queries across several fields. Each row in the result set can be opened in a detailed view on odonate data with option to add new data. Search results including all relevant database contents may be downloaded in CSV format.
