Odonata recorded during two brief sampling trips to the Kapit Town area in Kapit Division, Sarawak in 2020 are reported on. Seventy nine species were recorded, of which at least six (Onychargia atrocyana Selys, 1865, Ischnura senegalensis (Rambur, 1842), Pseudagrion lalakense Orr & van Tol, 2001, Megalogomphus borneensis (Laidlaw, 1914), Agrionoptera insignis (Rambur, 1842) and Hydrobasileus croceus (Brauer, 1867)) are first records for the division, bringing the total number of Odonata known from the division to 160. Notable records include Coeliccia kenyah Dow, 2010, Teinobasis laidlawi Kimmins, 1936, Burmagomphus insularis Laidlaw, 1914, Leptogomphus sp. cf coomansi Laidlaw, 1936 and Macromia callisto Laidlaw, 1922. Remarks are made on the habitat preferences of Agrionoptera insignis and Camacinia gigantea (Brauer, 1867). A highly atypical population of Neurothemis Brauer, 1867 (species unclear at present) is reported.

Boudot (2022) criticised in unusually harsh language with reference to 'Resolution 74 (26) on the Right of Reply of the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe (https://rm.coe.int/CoERMPublicCommonSearchServices/DisplayDCTMContent?documentId=09000016805048e1)' in an e-mail with attached word document dated 31st January 2022, local time Zerf: 15.45h a small and rather insignificant publication written by Nataly Snegovaya and myself, and demanded that his counter statement be published. In my function as the responsible editor of IDF Report I granted this wish. I t has to be noted that all we had done was insisting on retaining the record of Bartenef (1912a) which we are considering a proven record of Gomphus vulgatissimus....

This paper presents the results of a study on the odonate fauna in Azerbaijan The survey was conducted in the summer of 2021 and covered 24 localities in twelve districts. A total of 34 species from 9 families was recorded. New localities for Gomphus schneiderii Selys, 1850 and Libellula pontica Selys, 1887 are reported. A formerly published record of Gomphus vulgatissimus from Khachmaz, Nabran village, has to be corrected into G. schneiderii.

Boudot et al. (2021) extirpated, without any discussion, G. vulgatissimus from the list of Azerbaijan Odonata, subsuming all records of this taxon under G. schneiderii. This is contradictory to the fact that G. vulgatissimus was documented for Azerbaijan by Bartenef (1912). We discuss the current knowledge of the two taxa G. vulgatissimus and G. schneiderii, document a new record of G. vulgatissimus for Azerbaijan, and map all known findings of the two taxa that have been reported to date as well as the potential distribution (search area) of G. vulgatissimus in northern Azerbaijan.

This paper offers an explanation of each of the 44 scientific names given by Leopold Krüger (1861-1942) to odonate taxa together with that for the names of all the genera into which they are sorted now. But prior to that there is some information about the life and work of this scientist, and in the final part his preferences in odonatological nomenclature are compared with those in the names created by F.M. Brauer and F. Ris and some impressions of his studies on Neuroptera are presented and considerations about his aspirations in his work are given.
