Sixty new dragonfly and damselfly species from Africa (UPDATED 2015-12-15)

444Man knows just one fifth of the nine million species of animal, plant, fungus and protist thought to inhabit our planet. Dragonflies and damselflies are regarded as well-known, however. Nevertheless in this latest issue of Odonatologica Klaas-Douwe B. Dijkstra, Jens Kipping & Nicolas Mézière describe 60 new species, the most to be named at once in 130 years, adding one to every twelve species known in Africa.

UPDATE: A list of collection codes and corresponding BOLD numbers can be downloaded here.

As you might already know, you have to be a subscriber of Odonatologica to receive the issues but for once we have made an exception and made a low resolution pdf available for download for anyone – for free here. To receive the coming issues and to be able to download the last five years volumes, you have to be a subscriber: see details here.

Latest volumes

Notulae_wingSubscribers of Odonatologica should have or will very shortly receive the latest issue(s). As soon as they are all away we will make them available for download on this site. If you are a subscriber and want to download any of the volumes from the last five years, please contact Magnus and he will give you a code to apply.

We still have the ambition to publish all previous volumes on the website, where the ones older than five years will be available for anyone to download. It takes some more time however before that will be accomplished, so thanks for your patience.
