I have matched this dragonfly with all of the main key identification points except for the yellow stigma. Another poster asked about the relationship between dragon and damselflies but didn't catch a reply, if any. To my knowledge they are both sub-orders of the Odonata Order. Neither is a sub-order of the other. You can see in the attached picture that the dragonfly is eating a large fly. Another poster was amazed at what they will eat. Some of them are very fierce and will eat larger dragonflies. Please, anyone, help me ID the attached. |
