We isolated and characterized a total of 13 microsatellite loci from Cordulegaster sarracenia (Odonata: Cordulegastridae). Loci were screened in 24 individuals from Louisiana and Texas. Within C. sarracenia, the number of alleles per locus ranged from 0 to 5, and observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.000 to 0.556 and 0.000 to 0.613, respectively. Overall
A written description and illustrations of the final stadium larva of Nesciothemis farinosa are presented, based on larvae and exuviae collected in Namibia. The larvae were reared in the laboratory until emergence. Additionally, information on larval microhabitat, behaviour and development is provided.
