Abstract
We report the occurrences of Tramea lacerata (Black Saddlebags), Enallagma anna (River Bluet), and Epiaeschna heros (Swamp Darner) from localities in central and southwestern New Brunswick, Canada. The former 2 species are reported here for the first time from the province, and the Swamp Darner is reported for the second time, 118 years after the first known specimen was captured in 1899. Our record of a River Bluet represents a significant geographic range extension (~500 km east).
