Tn Dragonflyers,
Recently there have been changes in genus classification for some of the
Clubtails. Gomphus is no longer used, and has been replaced by several other
genus classifications/names. Some former sub-genus classifications have
been "elevated" as they described it, to genus status. So now there are 18
species of clubtails with new genus names on the Tennessee list. Common
names stayed the same, as far as I could tell. And all other species were
unchanged. I put a list of the 18 here:

FYI, I have attached a revised TN Odes field checklist, in PDF format, if
it comes through. Or I'll send it separately, if you'd like one.
Hopefully the Odes are waiting out this weird and changeable weather, and
will arrive on time for real Spring!
