[Odonata-l] Some Bornean Ode pics

Hi all,

I agree broadly with Graham Reel's views on these photos.

Both the Thin red line and blue-eyed dragon show Tetrathemis iregularis
hyalina. No offence to the person who suggested it, but they most certainly
do not show Orthetrum sabina (which is, however, common in Borneo).

Find the dragon is a female Tyriobapta torrida.

Red hilite and Red dragon both look like O. testaceum to me.

Best wishes,

Rory
