| description | The purpose of this research is to study the diversity and distribution of odonates in Johor, Peninsular Malaysia. The method used for odonate sampling was manual collection along 1 km line transect using aerial net. Overall, a total of 2222 individuals under 84 species from 13 families and 58 genera were recorded. Family Libellulidae was the most well-represented family. Shannon Diversity Index (H’) and Evenness Index (E) were highest in Endau-Rompin Johor National Park (H’= 3.155; E= 0.733) and lowest in Soga Perdana Recreational Forest (H’= 2.444; E= 0.501). To determine the site with highest conservation priority, the ecological data and entomotourism criteria was further analyzed using grid analysis. The site with highest priority was Endau-Rompin Johor National Park with a score value of 52 while the lowest priority was recorded in Sungai Sayong with a score value of 35. All these data will be helpful in assisting towards a better management of the conservation areas in Johor. |
