Ischnura elegans
This Female Damselfly is orange, but they can come in a variety of color forms, including a pink form, a violet form and a pale green form. Purple/violet, pink and green forms are juvenile, with the colour darkening as the damselfly ages.
Humid Habitats mostly lakes and Ponds, this is because they ley their eggs underwatewer.
This Damselfly was spotted at ´´La Conejera´´ Humeralis
