| Abstract: | Distribution
World: Ischnura genei is an insular species endemic to
the western Mediterranean. Europe: Ischnura genei is endemic to the Tuscan archipelago and the Tyrrhenian and Maltese islands, and is common and widespread within its range. It is absent from mainland Europe and replaces I. elegans on the above islands, except in Giglio where both species cohabit. A male and female were caught on the Italian island of Linosa, between the Maltese islands and the Tunisian coast, in 2010 (Corso et al. 2012). Whether they belonged to a local population breeding in the few man-made water tanks present on the island or were vagrants is unknown. |
