Dragonflies and damselflies (Insecta: Odonata) collected during the Lindberg expedition to the Cape Verde Islands, 1953-54

  • In this paper, 47 specimens of dragonflies and damselflies collected by H. Lindberg and his assistant S. Panelius in the Cape Verde Islands in 1953-1954 and identified by K.J. Valle and K.F. Buchholz, are presented. The damselfly Agriocnemis exilis Selys, 1872, collected in Boa Vista Island in February 1954, is added to the list of Odonata known from the archipelago. The collection also includes specimens from another damselfly, Ischnura senegalensis (Rambur, 1842), which was previously recorded in Cape Verde on only two occasions, in 1898 and 2000.

A libelinha Agriocnemis exilis Selys, 1872, capturada na ilha da Boa Vista em Fevereiro de 1954, constitui um novo taxon na lista de espécies de Odonata do arquipélago.
