Odonata Exuviae
Exuviae (in plural) are the cast nymphal skins of the penultimate instar of Odonata, so in fact it is the exoskeleton of the dragonfly which it lived in for a number of years as a nymph in a pond. This is probably the exuvia of a Libellula depressa, a very common dragonfly in the area it was spotted, near astream, in Othrys mountain, Greece.
