Climate change is leading to the emergence of new dragonfly and damselfly species in New Brunswick, particularly in the southwestern regions. Over the last two decades, researchers, including John Klymko from the Atlantic Canada Conservation Data Centre, have noted an increase in these insects, which are adapting to warmer winters and longer summers. The scarlet bluet, a damselfly first recorded in New Brunswick in 2016, exemplifies this trend, significantly expanding its range. Other species such as the eastern amberwing and widow skimmer are also being identified and are expected to spread further into Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. However, Klymko expresses concern for native species like the Canada whiteface and muskeg emerald, which may face decline due to competition for food and habitat changes. More research is needed to understand the impact of these newcomers on local ecosystems, particularly regarding food sources like mosquitoes. The contributions of citizen scientists have been vital in documenting these changes and aiding researchers in their surveys.
