“…Site 1 (upstream) had the highest diversity and this was in accordance to the results of Sharma et al (2007) that the presence of spring waters creates diversified microhabitat that can lead to higher species diversity. Generally, however, the three sites had low diversity which could be attributed to poor water quality (Domsic, 2008).…”

Dragonflies and damselflies of the order Odonata are well-known invertebrates and are of great ecological importance. They are among the biological indicators of environment quality. This study aimed to examine the species richness of adult Odonata in Labo River, Ozamiz City. Fieldwork was conducted from October 2013 to February 2014 in three sampling sites for a total of 122 man-hours. Opportunistic sampling method using sweep nets was employed. Twenty-one species under 16 genera and four families were recorded of which five species are endemic. Thirteen species belong to the suborder Anisoptera and eight to Zygoptera. The low species richness and the presence of indicator species of environmental disturbance imply that the sites sampled are already disturbed. The presence of endemic species within the area suggests the urgent need to employ conservation measures. Further surveys should also be done to have a complete database of the Odonata species in Labo River.

“…In the Western Ghats, there are records from Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu (Subramanian et al 2018). The authors have added the species to the checklist of Kerala based on a published record (Sharma et al 2007) and provide no further evidence for its occurrence in Kerala. It has to be noted that in the paper cited by the authors, no taxonomic description or photograph of T. virginia is given.…”

This is a rejoinder to the article “The Dragonflies and Damselflies (Odonata) of Kerala – Status and Distribution”. In the said paper, certain species are of doubtful occurrence in Kerala and the Western Ghats. First reports of certain species which were available in open-access biodiversity portals and published articles in peer-reviewed journals were ignored. Additions to the checklists have been made without conducting taxonomic investigations, or in one case, even presenting a photograph. These shortcomings will lead to confusion and misunderstanding among odonatologists and naturalists in the region.

“…Odonata (capung) menghabiskan hampir setengah dalam siklus hidupnya di perairan, sehingga jika pH dari perairan tersebut tidak optimal menunjang proses kehidupannya maka dia tidak akan ditemukan di sekitar perairan tersebut. Walaupun begitu, Sharma et al (2007), menyatakan bahwa ada beberapa jenis Odonata (capung) yang memiliki toleransi tinggi yang tahan dengan kondisi perairan yang tidak optimal (tercemar) contohnya spesies Orthetrum sabina.…”

Knowledge of the diversity of dragonflies (Odonata) is very important for river management which is used for various purposes by humans. This research aims to determine the diversity of Odonata in the waters of Bendungan Lempake, Karang Mumus River, and Berambai River Samarinda. Sampling was done by using purposive sampling technique through insect net with transect method along with the river flow, 5 times at each location for one month in the morning and evening. The samples obtained were prepared, stored on triangular paper containing camphor, and identified using entomological guidelines. Environmental temperature, humidity, and acidity of the water are calculated using standard measurement tools. Data is displayed in the form of the number of types and a description of each type. The results showed that 1025 individual dragonflies were found belonging to 22 species and 4 families of Odonata. The diversity index value (H') of dragonflies in the waters of the Bendungan Lempake is 2.83, the Karang Mumus River is 2.52 and the Berambai River is 2.53, which are classified as a medium category. The conclusion of this research is that the waters of Bendungan Lempake, Karang Mumus River, and Berambai River are still supporting as habitat for dragonflies to live and breed.
