Odonata
Here I have added some images of Odonata from Cuba that kind contributors have forwarded to me, along with a few that I have taken myself. ~88 species have been recorded in Cuba and you can download the checklist in excel here (Trapero Quintana, A.D. & Torres Cambas, Y. (2018)). Two species have been officially added since 2008 but I have also added on one extra species:
Antillean Skimmer Orthemis sp. which was described by Paulson (2011) and split from Roseate Skimmer Orthemis ferruginea though strangely not given a scientific name, and I think I'm correct in saying it still hasn't been.
And finally I'm no specialist in Odonata so if you see any pictures that are misidentified then do please let me know.
