List of Odonata species of India
Wikimedia list article

The following is a list of Odonata species of India.
India has extremely diverse terrain, climate and vegetation, which comprises extremes of heat and cold, desert and jungle, of low-lying plains and the highest mountains, of dryness and dampness, islands and continental areas, widely varying flora, and sharply marked seasons. India forms a large part of the Indomalayan biogeographical zone; many of the floral and faunal forms show Malayan affinities with some taxa being unique to the Indian region. In addition, India hosts three of the world's biodiversity hotspots: the Western Ghats, the Himalayas, and the hilly ranges bordering India and Myanmar, each having numerous endemic species.
India is home to 532 species of dragonflies and damselflies. The majority of the Odonata in India are found in the rainforests of the Western Ghats and Northeast India.
198 species of Odonata are endemic to India. These endemic species are marked with (E).

Begin with the source’s own compact description: “List of Odonata species of India” is wikimedia list article. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through List, Odonata and species, not as a finished interpretation.
Why this record matters
The phrase “wikimedia list article” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 2, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q3783825. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1930, 1862, 1922 and 1924.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
How to read it
Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
