Include slow flowing rivers and streams, abandoned canals, reedy lakes and ditches, oxbows and fishponds.\nFlight Season: From April to early August, but activity concentrated in May and June in most of range.\nDistribution: Widespread through M Europe, habitat specific, therefore locally common.\n\nIn the Netherlands the Dragonfly is local common.

$Tot 31-36mm, Ab 21-27mm, Hw 23-28mm.\nThis is the smallest Leucorrhinia. Easily confused with L. rubicunda, unless caught or closely examined. Both are black with yellowish-brown spots on the thorax.\nBehaviour: Like L. rubicunda, often displays a rather erratic flight across the water and the surrounding area. Frequently perches on the ground, among dense vegetation.\nHabitat: Bogs, ponds, tarns and lakes, usually acidic and often in forests. the larvae are sensitive to fish predation, and so the species, does better where fish are not present, such as small pools in raised bogs.\nFlight Season: From mid April to early September. In temperate lowlands, most abundant from late May to mid July.\nDistribution: often abundant species in N and E Europe, but like other Leucorrhinia species its occurrence is relictual in the south west of its range.\n\nThis is a quite common Species in the described Habitats in the Netherlands.$
