Field characters: Tot 56-64mm, Ab 43-54mm, Hw 37-42mm. Distinctly smaller than most Aeshna species.\n\nThe commonest small hawker. Numerous in much of our area, and although it can be on the wing during most months in the Mediterranean, further north it is especially associated with late summer and autumn, when it may appear in massive migrations. It is usually identified by its size, relative dull colours and the diagnostic yellow \

Tot 42-45mm, Ab. 25-29mm, Hw 32-38mm.\n\nGeneral: A local species throughout our area that prefers slow-moving waters, bordered with tall emergent vegetation. The appearance of the male changes dramatically with maturation; vivid orange abdomen turn into black and grey-blue territorial males. \nMales frequently perch on waterside plants, making darting flights between perches.\nHabitat: Appears to require a certain combination of water quality and habitat structure (such as Reed borders). 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. The Males have a blue Abdomen.
The banded demoiselle (Calopteryx splendens) is a species of damselfly belonging to the family Calopterygidae. It is often found along slow-flowing streams and rivers. It is a Eurasian species occurring from the Atlantic coast eastwards to Lake Baikal and northwestern China.
