Species Perithemis tenera - Eastern Amberwing

Photographs and Life History information about species of Odonata living in West Virginia and surrounding states. Many species have 4-7 photographs illustrating key ID traits. There is also an Odonates glossary and a bibliography of print sources.

A collection of dragonfly and damselfly photographs and other materials by Jim Johnson focusing on the Pacific Northwest, but including other regions including the Neotropics.

Here you will find images, individual and comparative county-based maps, flight season bars, and summary information on the current status of Georgia dragonflies and damselflies (Odonata).

Distribution, phenology, images.

Be prepared to be amazed at this wonderful site. Within minutes I had downloaded a list of all Dragonflies and Damselflies recorded from my county. State lists are here too.

For any species, you can view a map of your state, with counties shown and a dot in the counties where the species occurs. You can even view a map of the whole USA and Canada with a dot shown for each record.

Last year as this project was in its final phases, I contributed all my county records. Now everyone can contribute their records on-line. Photographic records will be vetted by experts and if the experts agree the ID is right they will accept the record. The site is affiliated with DSA, the chief dragonfly society in North America.
