Dragonflies and Damselflies of Pinnacles National Monument
Although at first glance Pinnacles National Monument may appear to be a vast arid landscape, a little exploration will reveal occasional welcome water sources. Streams, springs, ponds, and the Bear Gulch Reservoir support an abundance of life. In 2001, park biologists began a two-year project to inventory the aquatic macroinvertebrates of Pinnacles. The goal of the project is to collect and identify every species of worm, snail, crustacean, arachnid, and insect that lives in or around water and can be seen with the naked eye.

One conspicuous group of aquatic macroinvertebrates is the dragonflies and damselflies, collectively called odonates. These familiar insects can be seen darting about almost anywhere there is fresh water. So far, nineteen species of dragonflies and fourteen species of damselflies have been identified from Pinnacles, with more likely to be found this year. Adult odonates are voracious predators, catching flying insects with their mouths or with their spiny legs held out like a basket. One look at their huge eyes will tell you that they have great eyesight for spotting their prey. Unlike other insects, their front and hind wings beat in opposite directions, giving them excellent maneuverability in flight. They are also among the fastest flying insects.

    Dragonflies of Irish Bogs
    Imagine you're on a bog in early summer. It is a warm still day. You hear a loud rustling of wings coming from the edge of a pond. Looking around for the source you see a large blue-spotted insect slowly weaving through the upright stems of the aquatic plants - a dragonfly. Then above the pond you see two more dragonflies. This time stocky brown insects which appear to be fighting in mid air. They engage briefly before one hurriedly departs, leaving the apparent victor behind, now perched on a stout stem. On closer inspection you see some smaller more delicate insects close to the edge of the pond - damselflies. These are flying more sedately than the dragonflies, and the sunlight picks out the fiery red colour of the body. A female Four-spotted Chaser Libellula quadrimaculata. Photo: Brian Nelson

    68. Dragonflies And Damselflies Of Lincoln County, New Mexico
    An amazing list of dragonflies and damselflies found in Lincoln County, compiledby Robert Larsen, 1998. LINCOLN COUNTY ODONATA SURVEY By Robert Larson.
    http://www.rt66.com/~kjherman/odonata/4LincolnCo.html
    LINCOLN COUNTY ODONATA SURVEY
    By Robert Larson
    The following list of dragonflies and damselflies for Lincoln County is the result of the first systematic survey of the Odonata for Lincoln County. Also, this is the first systematic survey of any county of New Mexico made in over 50 years. The dragonflies and damselflies have not been systematically studied in any geographical area of New Mexico since Harold B. Freshley's study of the upper Pecos in 1945. Those specimens collected this year were added to the checklist of New Mexico Odonata by Dr. Mary Alice Evans which was published by the Denver Museum of Natural History in 1995. The specimens were confirmed by Dr. John C. Abbott of the University of North Texas and the Lincoln County specimens are now in that collection. Hetaerina titia (Drury), an amethyst winged damselfly, is a new state record and was confirmed by Dr. Thomas W. Donnelly at the State University of New York and Director of the Dragonfly Society of the Americas. Lincoln, Chaves, and Eddy Counties are proving to be the most biologically diverse areas for dragonflies in New Mexico and eventually may show the greatest diversity of any area in North America. For example the British Isles show a total of 27 species of dragonflies, yet Chaves County has over 31 confirmed species. Newmans Lake and the Everglades, florida's most diverse areas, show only 21 localized species although, their state totals are very much higher than that of New Mexico. This is all ver interesting, of course.

    http://www.alienexplorer.com/ecology/p107.html
    Dragonflies and Damselflies Dragonflies and Damselflies Are Similar Dragonflies and damselflies are similar in several ways. Both have two pairs of wings that move independently of each other. This allows the insects to hover like helicopters, fly backwards and dart quickly forward. You are not likely to catch a dragonfly or damselfly in flight with a net. Both insects catch their food while in flight with their long legs. Both have sharp, biting mouth parts used to cut up insect bodies. Even though they are dangerous to insects, dragonflies and damselflies are harmless to people. They do not sting and rarely bite even if handled. Dragonflies and Damselflies Are Different Dragonflies can be easily confused with damselflies in the adult stage. The easiest way to tell the adults apart is to look at them when they land on the ground or on a plant. Dragonflies do not fold their wings. They hold their two pair of wings motionless but still in a flying position. Most damselflies fold their wings in an upward and backward position. But one group of damselflies are different. They are the spread-winged damselflies . They keep their transparent wings spread out like a dragonfly, but their front wings point more toward the head. Their back wings point more toward the tip of the abdomen. Their wings are not held as flat as the wings of the dragonflies. Spread-winged damselflies also have wings that narrow to stalks near the body unlike the thick wing bases of dragonflies.

    Welcome to my website of Dragonflies and Damselflies resident in the Northants area. This site represents sightings, observations and photographs generated by the author, it does not represent "official" dragonfly data for the county of Northants. However, I am building a Northants Atlas within the Dragonfly Recording Network as part of the British Dragonfly Society, and welcome sightings from anywhere in the area. All observations and details included here were taken between 1030hrs and 1500hrs on sunny days, over or around water in the Northamptonshire area. Dragonflies are mainly active on sunny days when the temperature exceeds 20 degrees C with light winds at around midday.

    • Downy Emerald dragonflies are extemely difficult to photograph as they rarely come to rest in accessible positions. The individual shown was a notable exception to this rule as he settled repeatedly, giving ample opportunity for pictures to be taken. To put this into perspective, this is only the second example of this species which the photographer has managed to film at rest in over 20 years of trying! Southern Hawkers are a common sight patrolling along woodland rides in mid to late summer. Hand-held in-flight photography of non-captive insects demands a huge amount of patience and concentration as the critical depth of field is so small. The first photograph shows a fully mature male and the final three are of a freshly emerged male.

    • The above is a random selection of species and includes a mixture of still and mini-DV images. Further illustrations and information about these dragonflies have been provided on other pages with the exception of: the Yellow-winged Darter The Brown Hawker , a common large brown insect with fairly indistinct blue and yellow markings most evident in the male and an amber tint to the wings. These dragonflies are confined to the southern half of Britain where they may be observed almost ceaselessly patrolling. They are fiendishly difficult to approach for photography and the best opportunities are often presented by ovipositing females (as shown). The flight period is later than that of the similar Norfolk Hawker (see Dragonflies and Damselflies 3 and ) with little or no overlap in July.

    Dragonflies go through egg, nymph and adult stages. The nymphs, which take two or more years to reach maturity, are found either in the muddy beds of quiet backwaters or among dense marginal vegetation. Damselflies
    Damselflies have a life cycle very similar to that of the dragonflies. The egg hatches into a nymph which grows slowly through the winter months and more rapidly in spring and early summer. The adults emerge in summer. Damsel nymphs The nymphs are found in lakes and slow flowing rivers wherever the water is shallow enough for light to penetrate to the bed and allow weeds to grow. As the damsel nymphs approach maturity, usually over a one-year cycle, they migrate towards the shallower margins. Artificial damsel nymphs are very effective in spring and summer.
