Abstract
The Cleopatra’s Needle Mountain Range (CNMR) in northern Palawan includes one of the largest remaining patches of primary forest in the Philippines and has a high conservation value. To provide scientific baseline information to recognize the CNMR as a protected area, biologists mapped its biodiversity during fieldwork conducted from October to December 2014. The present study proposes a new species of Odonata discovered during the survey. Onychothemis yvonneae spec. nov. is described, illustrated, and compared with its nearest allies. The new species is the second member of the genus Onychothemis in the Philippines and is the seventh known overall. Onychothemis yvonneae appears to be most closely related to O. testacea and O. tonkinensis.

The PJSB is a CHED recognized journal under CHED CMO 50 series of 2017. It is also included in the Clavariate Analysis (formerly a subsidiary of Thomson Reuters) Master Journal List under Zoological Record, BIOSIS Previews and Biological Abstracts.The PJSB is the official publication of the Association of Systematic Biologists of the Philippines (SEC Registration: Association of Philippine Taxonomists, Inc.). The organization financially supports the journal and all its endeavors. The journal aims to build up quality information on animal, plant and microbial diversity in the Philippines. Articles dealing with original research or reviews in Zoological, Botanical or Microbial Systematics, Ecology and Conservation Biology are welcome. Authors are advised to consult a recent issue of PJSB for the current format and style. All manuscripts are reviewed by at least two qualified referees.
