COUNTY/REGIONAL DRAGONFLY RECORDERS

 

The following list is based on that published in the spring 2011 edition of ''Darter", the newsletter of the British Dragonfly Society's Dragonfly Recording Network (reproduced with permission). Some counties presently lack an active recorder, and observers are encouraged to contact the national co-ordinator in such situations or in other cases where problems arise. While every effort is made to ensure that the list is accurate, details of any additions or amendments would be gratefully received.
