Abstract

The Amapá is located in northern Brazil, numerous groups are little studied in the state, among them the order Odonata. The objective of the present work is to present data on the diversity of Amapá Damselflies. Sampling was carried out between the years 2018 and 2019. Were captured 602 individuals, of which, 26 species are new records for the state. The Amapá has so far registered 58 species of Zygoptera, inserted in 27 genera and seven families. Coenagrionidae, with 45 species registered comprised the highest abundance during the study with approximately 81% of the captured organisms. The present work increases the number of species of zygopterans by 44% for the state, thus, the results found acquire high relevance in the recognition of the diversity of the order Odonata in Amapá and the Amazon biome.
