Swamp Darner it is. Two votes for it make it a good call in my book. Thanks Tim and Jason.

Swamp Darner?
They're really uncommon in Massachusetts, and even less common further north into New Hampshire.
I'll try to rear it to the adult stage. I just hope it doesn't take another year.

I tried keying it out and ended up with Swamp Darner as well. I assumed I was misreading something, but maybe not. Will check again later.
