Crocothemis eryrthraea



This is the Broad Scarlet, frequently found in the NBG_KZN. The bold red of the male and the Golden yellow of the female are striking. In these Gardens there was a dragonfly walk with a delightful booklet guide by Tanza Crouch.

Agriocnemis falcifera; a tiny damselfly. The white mask is apparent, and perhaps the the falcifera relates to the scythe shaped superior anal appendage.
