SUMMARY<br />

Coenagrion pulchellum first appeared <strong>in</strong> the area <strong>in</strong> 1960. This led to a marked reduction of Coenagrion.puella on the sand<br />

pools. In re<strong>in</strong>vestigat<strong>in</strong>g the area <strong>in</strong> 1974 van Noordwijk found that the numbers of Coenagrion puella had recovered and the<br />

two species of Coenagrion were fly<strong>in</strong>g more nearly the same time.<br />

Based on the records <strong>in</strong> the period 1996-2007 Coenagrion pulchellum has fully disappeared from its former habitats. Overall<br />

this species has shown a significant <strong>de</strong>cl<strong>in</strong>e <strong>in</strong> Flan<strong>de</strong>rs due to loss of its biotope. This could be the case <strong>in</strong> our reserve, seen<br />
