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 : 34-35

Agriocnemis pygmaea Ramb.

Beisan, ♂, 11.vi.22. Dr. Buxton tells me that Beisan, which lies east of Mt. Gilboa, is about 400 ft. under sealevel, a t the edge of a little plateau full of springs and marshes. The Jordan just east of it is some 300 or 400 ft. lower.

This single ♂ agrees with specimens from India. The species (or at least with closely allied forms) has a wide range, reaching Queensland, the Phillipines and Formosa. It has been recorded by Campion from 'the Seychelles, but not, I think, from Continental Africa.
