Distribution recall L. barbarous, and also tends to wander like that species, though rarely in similarly great numbers.\n\nThis Species is to be seen in the describe Habitats, but not as common as L. sponsa in the Netherlands.$

$Identification:\nTot 57-66mm, Ab 39-49mm, Hw 37-42mm.\nIn flight often confused with the related and similar small A. mixta. Ranges less far north, but also migratory and may be invasive in good summers.\nMales are often observed when making low patrols over drying wetlands, showing their noticeable bright colors. The males vivid blue eyes and abdomen and largely green thorax sides are especially distinctive.\nHabitat: Prefers standing waters that dry up over the course of Summer, often overgrown with low rushes, bulrushes or reeds.\nFlight Season: On average, emerges earlier than A. mixta. Seen mainly from May to August, especially in the later months.\nDistribution: Seldom abundant, and only permanently present around the Mediterranean, but scarce in much of Iberia and North Africa. Hot summer weather may lead to influxes further north. Occurs east to Mongolia.\n\nThis Picture is made in a Fen area in Flevoland in half August 2022 by high Summer temperatures.$

$Tot: 45-50mm, Ab 30-37mm, Hw 33-38mm.\nIdentification:\nVery similar to O. cancellatum, with which it is found especially in the south-east, and as far west as France. However, it is sleeker, paler and more contrasting. Named for the contrasting white appendages of both sexes.\nBehavior:\nLike O. cancellatum, male often sits on open ground near the water, making very fast, low flights over the water.\nOccurrence:\nDistribution is patchy, but the species is generally not uncommon, stretching to China and Japan.\nHabitat: Open Ponds and Lakes.\nFlight Season: From the end of May to mid-September.\n\nThis nice Skimmer is photographed during a Vacation in France in May 1990.
