Libelloides baeticus
Looks like a damselfly but it belongs to a different order: Neuroptera. 2.5 cm. long. It hunts insects by a short and potent fly. It can be distinguished from other Libelloides by the white color at the anal side of the hindwing.
Spotted in an small meadow close to evergreen oak forest. Dehesa de ValdelatasCamera Model: NIKON D500. Exposure Time: 1/800 sec.; f/13; ISO Speed Rating: 640. Focal Length: 300.0 mm. No flash fired. DSC_2933
