Following on from the 2014 Atlas of Dragonflies and Damselflies in Britain and Ireland, the British Dragonfly Society aims to produce a State of Dragonflies report 2020 and they need your help. More...

We are currently undergoing one of the greatest periods of change in dragonfly distribution, with a number of species newly colonising the UK and spreading at an unprecedented rate. At the same time, climate change is raising interesting questions on an uncertain future for some of our species. In response to this, the BDS plans to release a State of Dragonflies report 2020, with trend analysis revealing how our breeding species have fared since the Atlas' release. You can adopt a chosen wetland site on which to carry out complete lists two or three times between May and September over successive years. This will increase the value of the records for trend analysis. Get in touch with your BDS County Dragonfly Recorder to inform them of your adopted site or for help choosing a site:
