Introduction The world literature of dragonflies including a large number of taxonomic descriptions, by today, has become a source of many consternations. Most taxonomists regard the group as almost unmanagable. Systematic, classificatory and taxonomic research are also greatly hindered by the large number of technical papers appearing in various journals all over the world which, with the rising tendency of prices today, become unattainable for many. The number of known and described taxa has risen sharply which again forces one to restrict oneself to a particular zoogeographical or systematic unit. Consequently, the intensively studied groups are comparatively well known, while the others are almost entirely neglected. This tendency is clearly reflected by the generic revisions or by special studies dealing with a particular geographic region that were published in the past decades. So time has arrived when, after several years of compilatory work, the publication of a literature revision is unavoidable. My principal aim was to make an inventory of all the valid and invalid taxa of Odonata. This work meant the collection of world literature, the checking of data, the cross-checking of all available information and where necessary their elucidation. I laid special stress on the systematic references of the classical taxa and on any changes that occurred to them in the last two centuries. In order to fulfil this task in the great majority of the cases I looked up the original descriptions of the taxa, most of which were published in the 19th century. My fundamental time lapse falls between 1758 and 1930s. I greatly value the original systematic divisions (subgenera, species, subspecies, races, forms) of early authors (Selys Longchamps, Hagen, Brauer and others), since most of these data in subsequent papers either do not appear, or if so, they are incomplete or heavily charged with errors. The higher categories of early times were rather unreliable in contrast with the well-defined systematic ranging of infraspecific taxa. The suprageneric system of the group was elaborated much later, mostly in the works of Tillyard, Fräser, Lieftinck, Pinhey and others. In my work I adopted Davies & Tobin's schematic list without claiming to strictly adhere to a pure phylogenetical system. Consequently, I avoided to make decisions especially in yet unsettled problems, thus, the following questions have been left unanswered:

VIII - The Davies & Tobin's list frequently has species names under a genus with a remark "including" certain species, which obviously belong elsewhere. When revising the literature I found that most of the species names have already been clarified and are synonyms. In cases where no decisions had been made, it was reasonable to keep the species group together until a thorough taxonomic revision. - Selys Longchamps heavily relied on subgeneric ranging when describing a new taxon, and when having infraspecific doubts he simply described new subspecies, races and forms. Later, specialists partly rejected this system, and in his catalogue, Kirby, as early as in 1890, elevated Selys's subgenera to generic level. Today, any subgeneric classification is rather heterogeneous owing to the lack of a reliable set of characteristics either above or below the generic level. Present authors do not use subgeneric categories, or if so, they are rather rare. Consequently, I left out all such categories, of course, in the literature citations I carefully made reference to any subgeneric relationship. - Following the original description of a taxon I give the place of type deposition, but only in such case, if at least two literure references support this fact. In early descriptions frequently no holotypes were designated from the type-series. Or in other cases, the specimens were all marked with identical labels. Thus, it happened that such specimens finding their ways into various other collections started to live their independent life, and were considered in many a time as the holotype of that species. This problem can, of course, be solved only after type revisions, and not whithin the framework of the present catalogue. My work lists the suprageneric taxa according to a systematic order, while the lower categories (generic and infrageneric) in simple order of the alphabet. (The short descriptions follow Davies & Tobin). The valid taxa always begin in a new line, within each entry the original names, either valid or invalid, are set in bold face type. The line of the independent valid taxon is followed by the literature citation beginning with the year, the name of the taxon and the source of bibliography. In the case of original descriptions the sex of the type, the place of deposition and the type-locality are also given. Reference to distribution has its own entry.

A supraspecific example: Genus Devadatta

KIRBY

1859 Tetraneura SELYS, Bull. Acad. r. Belg., (2) 7: 449. - Type-species: Tetraneura argyroides SELYS, 1859 (monotypy). - 1890 Devadatta KIRBY, Syn. Cat. Neur.-Odon., London: 111 (replaced name for Tetraneura Selys, 1859). - etc.

IX A specific example: argyroides argyroides (SELYS) 1859 Tetraneura argyroides SELYS, Synopsis des Calopterygines, Add. 1: 15. Type male: Selys's Collection; type-locality: Singapore, etc.

Distribution: Malaysia.

A secondary citation: subapicalis KENNEDY 1984 Miocora subapicalis KENNEDY, 1940 - loc. cit. DAVIES & TOBIN, The Dragonflies of the World, Utrecht, 1: 25.

Distribution: Colombia.

In the entry of the valid taxon one finds in chronological order the selected literature citations which reflect the history of the taxon, i.e. all important events. Thus, e. g. any change having taken place in its ranging or status, a new combination, redescription, recent new geographical distribution, the description of the other sex, etc. Furthermore, all those references which are important for a thorough systematic study of the taxon. Like, e. g. articles discussing a large geographical area, a big taxonomic unit, the material of significant collections or expeditions, revisionary papers, check-lists, monographs with critical analysis.

Catalogue

Order ODONATA Predacious insects with biting mouthparts and two equal or subequal pairs of elongate membranous wings, each wing with a complex reticulation of small crossveins and usually a conspicuous pterostigma. Eyes very large and prominent; antennae very short and filiform. Abdomen elongate, often extremely slender. Male accessory genital armature developed under 2nd and 3rd abdominal segments. Larvae usually aquatic, hemimetabolous; labium developed into a prehensile organ; respiration by means of caudal lamellae, rectal or occasionally lateral abdominal gills. 1783
