Abstract

A new species of megapodagrionid damselfly, Argiolestes baltazarae Gapud & Recuenco-Adorada, is described from the Northern Sierra Madre Natural Park, Philippines. The original description of A. realensis Gapud & Recuenco is modified to distinguish the two closely related species. The male of Rhinagrion philippinum (Selys) is described. Illustrations and a key to Philippine species of Megapodagrionidae are provided.
