Abstract

The Cleopatra’s Needle Mountain Range (CNMR) in northern Palawan includes one of the largest remaining patches of primary forest in the Philippines and has a high conservation value. To provide scientific baseline information to recognize the CNMR as a protected area, biologists mapped its biodiversity during fieldwork conducted from October to December 2014. The present study proposes a new species of Odonata discovered during the survey. Onychothemis yvonneae spec. nov. is described, illustrated, and compared with its nearest allies. The new species is the second member of the genus Onychothemis in the Philippines and is the seventh known overall. Onychothemis yvonneae appears to be most closely related to O. testacea and O. tonkinensis.

Onycothemis yvonnae spec.nov.（Odonata:Libellulidae），一种来自菲律宾巴拉望北部低地河岸森林的新蜻蜓

巴拉望北部的克利奥帕特拉针山脉（CNMR）是菲律宾现存最大的原始森林之一，具有很高的保护价值。为了提供科学的基线信息以承认CNMR为保护区，生物学家在2014年10月至12月进行的实地调查中绘制了其生物多样性地图。本研究提出了在调查过程中发现的一个新的蜻蜓属物种。描述、说明和比较了其最亲密的盟友。该新种是菲律宾甲鱼属的第二个成员，也是已知的第七个。Onycothemis yvonnae似乎与O.testacea和O.tonkinensis的亲缘关系最为密切。
