Abstract

Macrogomphus decemlineatus Selys, 1878 Selected references: Macrogomphus decemlineatus Selys, 1878;— Selys 1878b: 418–419 (original description, type from Sumatra: South Sumatra);— Dow et al. 2018: 13 (first record from Riau). Specimens collected. M1f: 1 ♂ (RER23 _ GOM29; RER), 4 x 2023; 1 ♂ (RER23 _ GOM30; BRIN), 4 x 2023; M1m: 1 ♂ (RER23 _ GOM9; RER), 16 ii 2023; 1 ♂ (RER23 _ GOM10; BRIN), 16 ii 2023; 1 ♂ (RER23 _ GOM11; UMRI), 16 ii 2023. Remarks. Macrogomphus decemlineatus is a relatively seldomly recorded species. Although certainly not confined to PSF and low pH waters, a significant percentage of the available records are from such habitats. It has also sometimes been found at streams in oil palm or at the oil palm—forest boundary. In the Kampar Peninsula it has so far only been found at two tributary streams of the Serkap River. In February 2023 in sunny conditions in the afternoon single males were found perched in small clearings on Sungai Sianyir, but in overcast conditions in October 2023 no individuals definitely of this species were seen at the same stream. Also in October 2023, but in sunny conditions, males were relatively common on Simpang Kanan, although the species had not been found there in February 2023.
