Abstract: Lyriothemis sp. Specimens collected. M4b: 1 ♀ (RER23 _ LIB162; RER), 13 vi 2023. Remarks. Although four species of Lyriothemis have been recorded in Sumatra (L. biappendiculata (Selys, 1878), L. cleis Brauer, 1868, L. magnificata (Selys, 1878) and L. salva Ris, 1927), none had been recorded in Riau Province until now. The single female collected is certainly not L. biappendiculata, is atypically coloured for L. cleis and is probably L. magnificata. We are not aware of any previous records of this genus definitely from PSF but, for instance, there is an old female specimen of L. magnificata from the Matang Road in Sarawak in the collection of the Sarawak Museum (Dow & Morris 2021), much of the surrounds of the Matang Road near to Kuching was originally PSF; there are also records of L. cleis from the surrounds of Tasik Bera (Norma-Rashid et al. 2001) and Tasik Chini (Kalkman 2004) in Pahang that could be from PSF. The female from the Kampar Peninsula was collected whilst it was flying around in a small clearing made by a treefall (L. cleis is quite often found in such situations in other types of forest).
