Talk:Aeshna

Query taxonomy
This list appears to be incomplete, omits species, (I put in isoceles), and has some wrong names. Blue Darner is an American species, A. multicolor, and I don't think it's a synonym of cyanea.

Why is the list alphabetical, and not in taxonomic order like other animal articles. (I've only written one dragonfly article, so i don't know enough to fix this myself). jimfbleak 07:21, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

List of species brought into line with International Dragonfly Fund and US common names to USGS-Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center. The following were REMOVED: --Keith Edkins 15:48, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * A. brevistyla : now Adversaeschna
 * A. coerulea : trivial synonym of A. caerulea
 * A. cyanida : apparently a mistake for cyanea
 * A. deffini : apparently a mistake for diffinis
 * A. furcifera : synonym of A. multicolor
 * A. isoceles : now Anaciaeschna
 * A. ornithocephala : now Polycanthagyna

I don't think this is correct. At least, all the references I have retain it in Aeschna and that includes Dijkstra, published 2005. The main page for the species has not been changed, and still shows it as aeschna. Harasseddad 09:20, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
