To be TRULY geographically correct (the new GC movement), and not offend
anyone, refer to it as 'Dragonflies of the terrestrial region bounded by
211000,3793000 and 688900,5820500 UTM' referring to the region's bounds in
Universal Transverse Mercator coordinates. Or maybe you prefer a
different projection system (lat-long?)??
