Onychogomphus assimilis, Schneider, 1845

K. J. Morton, 1924, The Dragon-flies (Odonata) of Palestine, based primarily on collection made by Dr. P. A. Buxton, with Notes on the Species of the Adjacent Regions., Transactions of the Entomological Society of London 1924, pp. 25-44 : 39

Ophiogomphus (?) assimilis Schneider.

I have no additional information regarding this species, which seems to be known only from the two males taken by Loew at Kellemisch. These are incomplete, the apex of the abdomen having been lost in both.

There is considerable agreement between the description in Mon. Gomph. p. 341 (separate, p). 81), and a n example given to me by Bartenef of his Onychogomphus fulvipennis from Lagodechi in the Caucasus, but as the agreement is not quite complete the discovery of more perfect material from the south coast, of Asia Minor must be awaited before a decision is possible.
