Special Note: For the purpose of this
checklist northwest Florida
is defined as that area lying west of the Suwannee River,
westward to the Perdido River.
Currently no State or Federally listed damselflies or dragonflies occur within northwest Florida. However, the Florida Natural Areas
Inventory and the Florida Committee on Rare and Endangered Plants and Animals currently list and track a number of species
within northwest Florida.
Lastly, scientific names and species taxonomy change from time to time, and this list may not reflect current
classification.
