OHIO DRAGONFLY SURVEY

The Ohio Odonata Society is working with the Ohio Division of Wildlife to update the original survey that ran from 1991 – 2001. In this updated survey we will be utilizing both traditional collections of specimens and photographic records through iNaturalist. The new survey will run from 2017 through 2019 and will culminate in a lay-person book on Ohio Dragonflies and Damselflies similar to the Ohio Bird Atlas.
​
Goals for the second survey of Ohio dragonflies and damselflies include:

• to identify every species known for each county.
• to identify species introduced/established in Ohio since the original survey.
• to determine changes in distribution and abundance, especially rare species
