Abstract
In 2014, Odonata species were investigated in selected habitats, especially in peat bogs, in the western part of the Lower Silesian Wilderness on the German-Polish border. Of particular interest were regionally rare and species protected by Polish law. A total of 39 dragonflies species were observed and for 26 the development was confirmed. There were four legally protected species: Ophiogomphus cecilia (Geoffroy in Fourcroy, 1785), Aeshna subarctica Walker, 1908, Leucorrhinia albifrons (Burmeister, 1839) and L. pectoralis (Charpentier, 1825), and one endangered species Orthetrum coerulescens (Fabricius, 1798) – category NT in the area. Furthermore, first records for 14 species within the investigated UTM squares are provided. Further, for O. coerulescens and Leucorrhinia rubicunda (Linnaeus, 1758) historical observations from the field have been updated. The results show a significant dragonfly diversity in the studied areas. Especially valuable are the first records of A. subarctica in the field, however, they still require a confirmation of autochthony. IDF-Report 83 Published: 06.05.2015 | 1
