Dragonfly - Arigomphus villosipes
Connecticut, USA
I don't know much of dragonflies but after looking through BugGuide, this looks like it could fit into the Gomphidae family. Don't know which species it could be, they are all similar. I would appreciate it if this could be narrowed down to species level. Thanks.
