Abstract
The present study on the Odonata (Insecta) of Chhattisgarh, India, documents eighty-five species including thirteen new records to the state. Three species — Cyclogomphus heterostylus Selys, 1854, Macrogomphus seductus Fraser, 1926 (Gomphidae) and Zygonyx iris iris Selys, 1869 (Libellulidae) — are recorded for the first time from central India. The paper discusses the geographical and habitat-wise distribution of Odonata of Chhattisgarh.
