The records are based on a publication by Matti Hämäläinen and Pekka Valtonen (1997, Trollsländornas utbredning i de naturhistoriska provinserna i Finland. Nordisk Odonatologisk Forum 3(1): 10-11.). The data is updated: six new records from 1997-2001 are included. Also two new species and 48 new provincial records from 2002-2007 are included. The latest update was made in December 2008 to include one new species and 6 new provincial records from 2008.
