Ramburi Red Parasol

Neurothemis ramburii

Description:

There are several very similar species of these, 3 of which are seperable only by the position of the stigma in relation to the red marking on the wing. On this one the red marking joins the middle of the stigma the other two joining at the inner and outer ends. In this particular individual the abdomen is more orange than red. I don't know if this is of any significance.

Habitat:

Lakeside in tropical rainforest.
