Checklist Australian Damselflies and Dragonflies |
|
The checklist below is based on the recent CSIRO publication The Complete Field Guide to the Dragonflies of Australia (Theischinger and Hawking, 2006). It is the most up-to-date and comprehensive field guide on Australian odonates on the market and provides detailed descriptions of both adults and larvae for the 320 or so Australian species. Update: As of December 2009 a new identification guide (written by Gunther Theischinger and Ian Endersby and published by the Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water NSW) is available in PDF format; see Identification Guide to the Australian Odonata. Apart from detailed identification keys and distribution maps this PDF also contains a revised checklist. With the authors' permission we have incorporated some of the revisions in our checklist below. Update: As of April 2011 we have included distribution maps for all Australian dragonfly species. Click here for more information. We have highlighted in light blue the 78 species we have managed to photograph to date.
