Englisches Abstract

Records of Odonata from the ulu (upper) Katibas River area, just downstream from the Lanjak Entimau Wildlife Sanctuary (LEWS), in October 2022 are presented. The fieldwork was part of a larger project mainly funded by the Mohamed bin Zayed Species Conservation Fund. All locations surveyed are within Song District in Kapit Division. The survey was focused on searching for species of small, high gradient forest streams so the results certainly do not reflect the full odonate fauna of the area. Forty species were recorded during the survey (with one additional record made in the town of Song). One species (Drepanosticta simuni) was recorded from Kapit Division for the first time; the second ever record of the species. Drepanosticta adenani was recorded from outside of the LEWS boundary for the first time, and in second growth forest for the first time. A new species of Telosticta is reported based on a single male, however this might be the same species as a previously unidentified female specimen from within LEWS. A very distinctive female Chlorogomphus, of the same presumably undescribed species as one recorded from the Long Seridan area in Miri Division in 2020, was collected. The high diversity of Platystictidae in the ulu Katibas area is remarked on.
