Widow skimmer

Libellula luctuosa

Notes:

Not sure of the ID on this one. It appears to have the wing shape and markings of a male widow skimmer .. and the abdomen of a female? Either I have the ID wrong, this is a local variation or ... gynandromorph? I'm guessing the former and could use some input from those in the know.
