TY - GEN A1 - Reels, Graham T1 - Report on field surveys of dragonflies in Hainan, China, and preparation of a field guide to the Odonata of the island T2 - International Dragonfly Fund : Report N2 - In early 2007, I was invited by Dr. Michael Lau, Head of the China Programme of Kadoorie Farm & Botanic Garden (KFBG), to write a simple guide to the Odo nata of Hainan, China. KFBG is a Hong Kong-based conservation charity orga- nization, with strong links to tropical southern China, and is conducting a project to produce a series of basic fauna and flora field guides for Hainan Island, to be published in English and Chinese, but primarily aimed at older schoolchildren in China. I previously conducted field surveys of Hainan Odona ta with KFBG (as an employee or volunteer) in 1998, 1999 (twice), 2002 and 2005. Results of the three surveys conducted in 1998-1999 (one if which was also attended by Keith Wilson) were published by Wilson & Reels (2001). The results of the 2002 and 2005 surveys will appear as a chapter in a KFBG book about Hainan’s Yinggeling Nature Reserve, to be published in 2010. I also published a very brief, informal account of the 2005 survey in Agrion (Reels, 2006). On the basis of these past experiences, I gladly accepted the op tunity to write a field guide for KFBG.
