Abstract: ABSTRACTin this work, i apply a simple protocol to species occurrence inventory of odonata in a region of Maranhão state which has very few distributional records. Some relations between species occurrence and environmental characteristics are discussed, mainly in relation to the high occurrence of Erythemis. Eighteen new records are presented discussing the role of this approach to generate useful information for conservation purposes.KEYWORDS: rapid assessment protocol, Biodiversity, odonata, Environmental i… Show more

“…In contrast to these results, M. divergens Westfall, which is reported in this study, is recorded only in regions of the Atlantic Forest. Another case similar to this involves the species Orthemis ambinigra Calvert previously reported for Maranhão in the study of De Marco (2008), which also concentrates most of its records in areas of the Atlantic Forest. This results shows the collection gaps in this region (Almeida et al 2010).…”

“…The water flow in these places is controlled according to the owner's interest. This activity may be favoring the occurrence of generalist organisms, which have a greater tolerance for open areas, such as some species of the genera Erythrodiplax and Micrathyria (De Marco 2008). The change in stream flow may over time lead to a change in species composition, locally wiping out those that are typical of more pristine lotic environments and favoring the entry of more generalist species from more lentic or semi-lentic environments (Juen et al 2014).…”
