Harmonic radars can be generally used to track very small (1.5 cm) and lightweight (15 mg) passive tags; as an example, they have been adopted various insects for almost 30 years now. In most of the cases, their usage was motivated by entomological interest in better knowing habits observed insect; fewer applications, like ours, prevailed need protecting environment from invasive species. However, despite purpose research involving radars, not a lot engineering resources invested during last...
Harmonic entomological radars have been used in the last decades to track small and lightweight passive tags carried by various insects, usually flying at low altitude over flat terrain. Despite being exploited many applications, not a lot of progress was achieved terms performances years. This paper reviews research work done this topic throughout European LIFE project STOPVESPA, from 2015 2019. The main objective STOPVESPA contain invasive Asian hornet (Vespa velutina) prevent it further...

Female limited polymorphism consists in the coexistence of two or more female morphs same population and is widespread among odonates.Generally, one morph, andromorph, resembles males colour or, sometimes, also morphology behaviour, while other morphs, gynomorphs, differ from males.This phenomenon probably promoted by advantages to females which arise reduced sexual harassment.Andromorph Calopteryx splendens keep wing spots, like (although these ornaments do not match exactly male spot...
