Abstract

A dramatic increase in the interest in the dragonfly and damselfly (Odonata) fauna of New England has led to many new discoveries recently. We document the occurrence of six species of Odonata previously unknown from Massachusetts: furtive forktail (Ischnura prognata), subarctic darner (Aeshna subarctica), taper-tailed darner (Gomphaeschna antilope), incurvate emerald (Somatochlora incurvata), bar-winged skimmer (Libellula axilena), and striped glider (Tramea calverti). Four of these species were unknown from New England prior to 1995. Additionally, we discuss recent records of coppery emerald (Somatochlora georgiana) and variegated meadowhawk (Sympetrum corruptum), two species rarely recorded from New England.
