Abstract

Records of Odonata from the Lanjak Entimau Wildlife Sanctuary (LEWS) in Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo are presented. Previous records of Odonata from LEWS are critically examined. One hundred and ten species have been recorded within the sanctuary, including three that have yet to be found outside (Drepanosticta adenani, Telosticta iban and “Elattoneura” mauros); records of four more species are regarded as in need of confirmation, those of another six are incorrect. In addition to the three species only known from LEWS, other notable records include: Drepanosticta sbong, Dysphaea lugens, Euphaea sp. cf basalis, Pericnemis kiautarum, Burmagomphus insularis, Gomphidia caesarea, Merogomphus species, Phaenandrogomphus safei, Macromia callisto and Idionyx montana. A fresh illustration of the anal appendages of Drepanosticta sbong in lateral view is provided to make up for inaccuracies in the original illustration. The taxonomy of Phaenandrogomphus safeii is briefly discussed. Zygonyx errans Lieftinck, 1953 is considered a subspecies of Z. ida not Z. iris Additional records from areas adjacent to LEWS are given in an appendix. Bahasa Melayu Abstract Rekod Odonata dari Sanktuari Hidupan Liar Lanjak Entimau (LEWS) di Sarawak, Borneo Malaysia dibentangkan di sini. Rekod Odonata terdahulu dari LEWS diperiksa secara teliti. Sebanyak 110 spesies telah direkodkan di dalam sanktuari, ini termasuk tiga spesies yang setakat ini masih belum lagi dijumpai di luar sanktuari ini (Drepanosticta adenani, Telosticta iban dan “Elattoneura” mauros); empat rekod yang masih perlu kepastian; dan enam rekod yang tidak tepat. Selain daripada tiga spesies yang unik kepada LEWS tersebut, terdapat juga beberapa spesies yang menarik antaranya, Drepanosticta sbong, Dysphaea lugens, Euphaea sp. cf basalis, Pericnemis kiautarum, Burmagomphus insularis, Gomphidia caesarea, Merogomphus spesies, Phaenandrogomphus safei, Macromia callisto dan Idionyx montana. Satu ilustrasi baharu padangan sisi apendej anus bagi Drepanosticta sbong diberikan untuk membetulkan ketidaktepatan dalam ilustrasi asal. Taksonomi bagi Phaenandrogomphus safeii turut diperbincangkan secara ringkas. Zygonyx errans Lieftinck, 1953 dianggap sebagai satu subspesies kepada Z. ida bukan Z. iris. Rekod tambahan dari kawasan bersebelahan LEWS diberikan dalam lampiran.
