Damselflies (Coenagrionidae) have been avoiding leaf veins during oviposition for at least 52 million years
Summary: Plant-insect interactions can provide extremely valuable information for reconstructing the oviposition behavior. We have studied about 1350 endophytic egg traces of coenagrionid damselflies (Odonata: Zygoptera) from the Eocene, identifying triangular or drop-shaped scars associated with th...
