FAMILY COENAGRIONIDAE
This page contains information and pictures about Big Red Damselflies that we found in the Brisbane area, Queensland, Australia.
- Body length 40mm, male
- The Big Red Damselflies are beautiful with orange red abdomen and yellow green thorax and head.
Although they are sharp in colour, they are not easily seen. They usually hiding among the grass near the waters. We found the damselfly once along Moolabin Creek.
Few years later in October, we saw the second Big Red Damselfly in Yugarapul Park near Bulimba Creek. It was hiding in dense vegetations.
The damselfly flied slowly and did not care too much on our approaching.
