3 CONTENTS ECOSPHERE VOLUME 8 NUMBER 11 NOVEMBER 2017 COVER PHOTO: The oviposition of Anax parthenope julius at one of the surveyed ponds. Iwai et al. (Ecosphere Volume 8, Issue 9, Article e01930; doi: /ecs2.1930) showed that adult, but not larval, odonates were directly affected by aquatic and terrestrial habitat characteristics and that larval odonate populations were only affected by the characteristics of adult populations.
