Podagrion olenus (Walker, 1839) View in CoL

Palmon olenus Walker, 1839b: 7–8 View in CoL . NSW: Sydney. Transferred to Podagrion View in CoL by Dalla Torre, 1898: 370. Bouček (1988): 141.

Remarks. Bouček (1988) designated a lectotype but stated that ‘unfortunately only the gaster and one hind leg (on a slide) remain’. This incomplete type, however, could not be located at NHMUK. Bouček (1988) does not provide any further discussion on this species, which we interprete as him being fine with the classification of the species in Podagrion (albeit with some uncertainty because he already could only examine some fragments).
