Preservation status and label details ofprimary types arestated. INTRODUCTION TheMuseodeLaPlatawas inaugurated in 1888by thenaturalistFrancisco P. Moreno.ThisMuseumhousesalargeentomological collection,whereColeoptera, Diptera, Hymenoptera and Hemiptera are the ordersbetterrepresented. Odo- nata studiesinthisMuseum begun in the 1960swiththeworkofLuis A. Bulla onsystematics of Coenagrionidae, andinthe 1980sAlbertoRodrigues Capitulo studiedrepresentatives, mainly from BuenosAiresandEntreRios provinces. In thelate 1980s,JavierMuzoncarriedoutodonatological research onArgentinean Lestidaeand Coenagrionidae andlater, together withNatalia von Ellenrieder, PabloPessacq and FedericoLozano, onall Argentinean odonates. Theodona- tological collection deposited at the Museo deLa Platais the largest inArgen- tina, hosting nearly 5,000 specimens (asmallportion pinned), brought together mostly inthelast20 years.
