Acta Amazonica, Manaus, v. 38, n. 4, p. 819-822, Dec. 2008.e- 1809-4392http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/12085In this work, I apply a simple protocol to species occurrence inventory of Odonata in a region of Maranhão state which has very few distributional records. Some relations between species occurrence and environmental characteristics are discussed, mainly in relation to the high occurrence of Erythemis. Eighteen new records are presented discussing the role of this approach to generate useful information for conservation purposes.engAcesso AbertoRapid assessment protocolBiodiversityOdonataEnvironmental impactConservationLevantamento rápido de espéciesBiodiversidadeOdonataImpacto ambientalConservaçãoArtigo10.1590/S0044-59672008000400030
