This study is the first check-list of Odonata from the Sempre-Vivas National Park, a rocky field formation in the Cerrado domain in the north-eastern region of Minas Gerais, south-eastern Brazil. The sampling was carried out from 2018 to 2019, totalling 20 days of sampling effort and yielding almost 700 specimens collected. A rich community of 79 species from 10 families was recorded. Three sampled species are red-listed by IUCN and one at national level. These are most likely accorded threatened status due to lack of knowledge on their populations, insufficient collecting efforts, and the failure of published data from existing natural history collections.
