The study was conducted through exploration in the six resorts.Dragonflies specimens will be identified and confirmed to LIPI Cibinong, Bogor, West Java. SDI calculated by theShannon-Wiener formula. The results showed that there are 27 species of Odonata (17 members of the SuborderAnisoptera and 10 of Suborder Zygoptera) in Babul NP region.
