Abstract: Fifty one adults of nine species of Odonata were collected by the author on Ulithi Atoll, Fais Island, and Woleai Atoll, Micronesia, between December 2007 and December 2009. Together with a previously Yap and Ulithi, they include 13 first island records and three easternmost records for the Caroline Islands. Breeding on one or more of the islands is confirmed for seven species. Five of the nine species (Anax guttatus (Burmeister), Diplacodes bipunctata (Brauer), Pantala flavescens (Fabri-cius), Tholymis tillarga (Fabricius), and Tramea transmarina Brauer) are widespread throughout Micronesia and are the species most likely to be encountered on the smallest and most remote islands, often with very limited available water.
