Managed to record 18 species of dragonflies on the recent trip to Namibia, including several new species for the trip. Best of the new stuff was Pseudagrion massaicum (common at von Bach Dam this year) and Zygonyx torridus (two at von Bach Dam). Who knows what I could have found at von Bach if I had not been attacked by wasps whilst trying to catch the latter species!
Orthetrum trinacria (Etosha) - a dragonfly specialist, chomping on a hapless Diplacodes lefebvrii at Namutoni.
Ceriagrion glabrum - Mokuti Lodge (Etosha).
Pseudagrion massaicum - a tick for me at von Bach Dam this year.
The widespread Urothemis edwardsii at von Bach Dam.
Rhyothemis semihyalina - seen at three locations this year.
