Dragonfly records from the British Dragonfly Society Recording Scheme

Odonata, including both dragonfly and damselfly records collected and collated by the BDS Recording Scheme (formerly the Dragonfly Recording Network), a part of the British Dragonfly Society, for the period 1800-2024. This dataset incorporates the whole of the historical Dragonfly Recording Network (DRN) dataset and the more recent records maintained in iRecord. Data for recent years may be incomplete, as recorders add batches of records that may include earlier sightings. It is the Society's intention that the dataset will be updated at least annually.
