Black Darter (Sympetrum danae) - a photo on Flickriver

            This is the only black darter in Britain and is our smallest dragonfly. The top of the thorax and abdomen are black, the latter being waisted at segment 4 and club shaped towards the tip. There are some yellow marks along the sides of the abdomen and the thorax sides are yellow with a broad black band that encloses 3 yellow spots. The wings are clear with short pterostigma and the hindwing is very broad. The eyes and legs are black. Immature males are yellow with black markings- similar in appearance to the females.
