Hello Matt, species suggestions are usually reserved for making suggestions at the species or genus level. Including a generally common name for a large group of insects, with no addition of any scientific name does not hold much value. It is the equivalent of identifying a plant simply as "tree". Also this species belongs to the suborder generally referred to as "damselflies".
