Blue Damselfly

Description:

Mating damselflies "docked" on a log

Habitat:

Costa Rican rainforest stream

Notes:

At one point, there were 3 "docked" sets of damselflies on the same log. The male's red eyes really stood out in comparison to its blue coloration.

Gorgeous! This damselfly is found in semi-tropical habitats in the southern United States and extends southward to Costa Rica.

Incredible eyes. We have a species here with a similar blue abdomen. I just collected a nice selection of niads for a class discussion in the pilot program.
