The Â鶹ÊÓƵ Entomology Collection contains six drawers of pinned dragonfly specimens collected on the island of Negros in the Philippines in the general vicinity of Dumaguete City during the months of July, August, and September in 1970. The collector of the material remains a mystery, the pinned specimens were labelled with date and location only, and not identified.
Having access to no keys or guidebooks for the Odonata of the Philippines, I’ve turned to sources for nearby areas of tropical Asia. Thus my determinations have relied on John Michalski’s book A Manual for the Identification of the Dragonflies and Damselflies of New Guinea, Maluku and the Solomon Islands (2012), but have also consulted Dragonflies of Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore (2005) by A.G.Orr and Dragonflies of Singapore (2010) by Tang Hung Bun, Wang Luan Keng, and Matti ±á䳾ä±ôä¾±²Ô±ð²Ô. Various online resources were consulted as well. All names have been checked for current status on the World Odonata List compiled by Martin Schorr and Dennis Paulson. If there was any uncertainty in the identification, the determination was made to genus only. Please inform us of any errors or of any corrections that might be made.
