Moustached darter

Sympetrum vulgatum

Description:

Common in north and eastern Europe, this darter is distinguished from others by the "drooping moustache". This peculiar female had a red line along the abdomen.

Habitat:

A very dry hillside, quite far from any body of water.

Notes:

I could be mistaken, let me know if you have other ideas.
