IV. — On a Small Collection of Odonata [Dragon flies) from 

 Queensland, with Descriptions of Five new Species. By 

 W. F. Kikby, F.L.S., F.E.S., Assistant in Zoological 

 Department, British Museum (Natural History), South 

 Kensington. 



The British Museum has lately received one or two collections 

 of insects of various orders from Mr. Gilbert Turner, of 

 Mackay, Queensland, among which were twenty species of 

 dragon flies ; and as live of these appear to be new and others 

 interesting from the locality or otherwise, I thought it might 

 be useful to publish a list of them.
