Note added in proof<br />
At the time of going to press, some extraordinary sightings of migrant dragonflies have been reported,<br />
including two species which are new to the British list. These are Crocothemis erythraea, which was found<br />
by S P Jones and G Sutton on 7 August 1995 at Hayle Kimbro Pool on the Lizard Peninsula, Cornwall, and<br />
Sympetrum pedemontanurn, which was found by I D Smith on 16 August 1995 near Tredegar, Gwent. In<br />
both instances, a single male was seen and photographed. Also in August, S. flaveolurn and S. fonscolombil<br />
were reported from many locations in southern Britain, and there were several sightings of S. vulgaturn - the<br />
first reliable records since 1946.<br />
