Abstract
Over time, the significance of checklists as essential tools for managing Sicily’s natural heritage has been underscored by the requirements outlined in international biodiversity conventions, particularly in relation to implementing the Habitats Directive. Compiling and updating checklists of fauna and flora for each specific region is necessary due to the growing interest in biodiversity today, which serves as a foundational and indispensable knowledge base. In this paper, a first detailed and complete checklist of the 17 Odonata species of some naturalistic areas of Sicily (Italy) is presented. Regarding the Capo Feto and Margi Spanò wetland, the checklist includes 10 species of dragonflies, 13 species for Margi Milo. As far as the Pantano Leone wetland is concerned 13 species of dragonflies are listed.
