TL;DR: During a visit to the coastal regions of Cambodia within the Provinces of Koh Kong, Kampong Saom, Kampot and Kep within April 12-23, 2010, 59 species of Odonata were found, taking the current checklist for Cambodia up to 83 species.
Abstract: During a visit to the coastal regions of Cambodia within the Provinces of Koh Kong, Kampong Saom, Kampot and Kep within April 12-23, 2010, 59 species of Odonata were found. Of these, 51 were identified, 2 preliminarily identified (1 by exuviae, 1 to a known species with the valid name unresolved), 1 dubious (Aciagrion cf. pallidum), 3 not identified (just visual observations) and 2 seemingly undescribed, namely Burmagomphus sp. and Microgomphus sp. Fourteen species were recorded for the first time for this country, namely Neurobasis chinensis, Dysphaea gloriosa, Euphaea masoni, Onychargia atrocyana, Copera marginipes, Copera vittata, Prodasineura autumnalis Prodasineura verticalis sensu Asahina, 1983, Lathrecista asiatica, Orthetrum chrysis, Rhyothemis obsolescens, Tramea transmarina euryale, Zygonyx iris malayana, Zyxomma petiolatum; taking the current checklist for Cambodia up to 83 species. Some features of the collected specimens relevant to their taxonomy are discussed. Brief field notes are provided and Odonata records enumerated. The habitats and community of Odonata at the Cardamon Mts. foothills at the end of dry season are discussed.

TL;DR: The checklist of the odonates of Gujarat is raised to 65 species, with twenty-two species being reported for the first time from central Gujarat, raising the total list of odonate to 48.
Abstract: An inventory of Odonata was carried out in six districts of central Gujarat from 2012 to 2014. A total of 42 species belonging to 27 genera, under seven families and two suborders were recorded. A total of 16 species of Zygoptera (damselflies) and 26 species of Anisoptera (dragonflies) were recorded. Anand District was surveyed intensively and as a result a maximum of 35 species was recorded (Dragonfly 22 and Damselfly 13), whereas less intensively surveyed districts, i.e., Panchmahal (17) and Dahod (16) had comparatively low species richness. Twenty-two species are being reported for the first time from central Gujarat, raising the total list of odonates to 48. Six species reported in an earlier survey were not encountered during this study. Seven species namely, Copera marginipes, Pseudagrion microcephalum , Anaciaeschna jaspidea , Anax immaculifrons , Epophthalmia vittata , Brachydiplax sobrina , Tramea basilaris burmeisteri are being recorded for the first time from Gujarat State. Hence, now the checklist of the odonates of Gujarat is raised to 65 species.
