A checklist, based on a database containing published data, of the Odonata (dragonflies and damselflies) occurring in Sundaland and Wallacea is presented. The presence of (sub)species is indicated for eight main regions (Singapore & Peninsular Malaysia, South China Sea (islands in the South China Sea that are not sensibly treated as satellites of larger landmasses), Borneo, Sumatra, Java & Bali, Lesser Sunda, Sulawesi, Moluccas), 22 subregions and 80 smaller islands and island groups. In total 743 full species are recorded from the entire area with 549 species known from Sundaland and 270 from Wallacea. Of these 482 are not found outside Sundaland and Wallacea, 385 (ca. 52% of the fauna) of which are single region endemics; the majority of these are actually single island endemics. Notes are provided on taxonomic problems or indicating problematic distribution records. Prodasineura lansbergei is considered to be a nomen nudum (stat nov.). For each of the eight main regions the history of the study of odonates is briefly discussed, information is provided on the coverage of the available data and the faunal composition is described. An overview is given of genera for which no larvae have been described. A brief comparison is made between the faunas of Sundaland and Wallacea showing that they only share 10% of the species between them (76 of 743).
本文呈现了一份基于包含已发表数据的数据库的、关于巽他群岛和华莱士区蜻蜓目（蜻蜓和豆娘）物种的清单。清单标明了八个主要区域（新加坡及马来西亚半岛、南海（南海中不属于较大陆块附属岛屿的岛屿）、婆罗洲、苏门答腊、爪哇及巴厘岛、小巽他群岛、苏拉威西岛、摩鹿加群岛）、22个次区域以及80个较小岛屿和岛屿群中（亚）种的分布情况。整个区域共记录到743个完整物种，其中巽他群岛已知549种，华莱士区已知270种。这些物种中，有482种仅在巽他群岛和华莱士区被发现，其中385种（约占该动物区系的52%）为单区域特有种；实际上，这些特有种大多是单岛屿特有种。文中还对分类学问题或有问题的分布记录做了注释。Prodasineura lansbergei被认为是一个裸名（新状态）。针对八个主要区域中的每一个，简要讨论了蜻蜓目的研究历史，提供了可用数据的覆盖范围信息，并描述了动物区系组成。给出了尚未描述幼虫的属的概述。对巽他群岛和华莱士区的动物区系进行了简要比较，结果表明它们之间仅共享10%的物种（743种中的76种）。
