Abstract: Dragonflies and damselflies (Insecta: Odonata) are widely distributed among freshwater ecosystems of tropical and temperate environments. They are also particularly sensitive to anthropogenic changes. The objective of this study was to inventory the odonate fauna of a section of the Sucupira Reservoir on Rio Uberabinha, Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, Brazil, and to document the species composition of the odonate fauna during the dry and rainy seasons. The study also aimed to describe the distribution of the sampled… Show more

“…Additionally, Veredas are an important source of shelter and food from insects to fishes and birds, playing an important role on the ecological balance in the Cerrado. Odonates are little explored within such areas, despite recent studies show that this ecosystem holds a great number of species of the order (Vilela et al 2016;Barbosa et al 2019;Borges et al 2019).…”

“…Considering the knowledge gaps of Odonata in the Cerrado, we conducted an inventory in palm swamps and riparian forests of Marco 2015, Dalzochio et al 2018b), the most abundant libellulid in our study. However, even if anthropized areas are diverse in generalist dragonflies, they may contain not reported species with restricted distribution (Barbosa et al 2019, Santos et al 2020. In this context, we found Oligoclada xanthopleura and Angelagrion nathaliae in degraded ponds.…”

“…It is estimated that there are around 6.000 species described in the world and around 856 species cataloged in Brazil that leads itself to the greatest diversity in the world. 1,2 The increased taxonomic information that we have nowadays led to more studies about Odonata in Brazil considering how easy is to be observed and captured by the fascination created by this group. [3][4][5] Most of these surveys are about description of new species and their respective ecologic role 6 and geographic distribution.…”

“…7 Considering the Triângulo Mineiro, the region where the present study was conducted, there are some studies that contribute to improving the knowledge about the Order. 1,2,9 Although more studies have been taken place in Triângulo Mineiro, the anthropic action including deforestation and urbanization, keeps impacting the Vereda's areas. 1,11 Despite this, the Brazilian Forest Code, and the law 12.651 established the preservation of the Veredas and the maintenance of 20% of native areas of Savanna in private farms, respectively.…”
