Englisches Abstract

The odonates recorded during four brief surveys conducted in the Lower Palni Hills, Western Ghats, India in 2022 and 2024 are reported. Thirty-seven species were recorded, including a gomphid that does not match the description of any known species. Fourteen of the species recorded represent additions to the odonate fauna of the Palnis. Remarks are made on the habitats that were surveyed. The updated checklist is presented.
