m right and left of the transect. The results of research on three types of habitat found two
families namely Libellulidae (13 species) and Gomphide (1 species) of 567 individuals.
The highest value of relative abundance was found in species of Orthetrum sabina that

and aquatic habitat had the highest percentage of diversity and evennens
