Regional variations in occupancy frequency distribution patterns between odonate assemblages in Fennoscandia
Abstract Odonate (damselfly and dragonfly) species richness and species occupancy frequency distributions ( SOFD s) were analyzed in relation to geographical location in standing waters (lakes and ponds) in Fennoscandia, from southern Sweden to central Finland. In total, 46 dragonfly and damselfly s...

In the southern lakes and ponds, none of the species occurred in all lakes, whereas in the north, many species were present in all of the studied waterbodies. The dispersal ability of the species did not explain the observed species occupancy frequencies, but generalist species with a large geographical range occurred in a higher percentage of the waterbodies.
