Abstract

This publication documents the diversity of odonates found in French Guiana and discusses their distribution and ecology. The check-list was created by compiling information from available publications and databases. A total of 292 species belonging to 14 families and 94 genera are listed from the territory. Of these, one family, three genera and 48 species are new records. Four species are considered endemic to French Guiana, and seven known species remain undescribed. For species listed, occurrence by municipality, ecoregion, and known aquatic and terrestrial habitats are noted.
