It does and it doesnt. Mine has black on its abdomen.....oh these little dragonflies are keeping us busy!

hopefully it helps a bit :)

I think both are females, and they do look similar - I wouldn´t say that they are the same sp.
my spotting looks similar too- take a look: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/665...
