Abstract/Summary

Northward shifts of many UK Odonata and increased occurrences of migrants have been well documented over the last few decades. Erythromma viridulum has greatly expanded its European range and is the first damselfly to have colonised the UK since records began. Since its arrival in 1999, the species has spread rapidly in a north westerly direction by approximately 36.5km per year as it has occupied climatically suitable space. In recent years the rate of northward expansion has decreased, however western expansion and range infilling has continued.
