Four hours at FRIM, a forested campus area in the outskirts of KL produced 20 species of Odonates along the Sungai Kloh and an associated small wetland. The forest was pretty good, I even got a few leech bites for my trouble. A few bird year-ticks noted too; black-naped oriole and scarlet-backed flowerpecker.
Rhyothemis obsolescens - always great to see.
Paragomphus capricornis - a new species for me and worth the RM5 price of admission alone.
Another new species for me was Euphaea ochracea, favouring the more rapid sections of the small stream at FRIM.
Lathrecista asiatica - very like Agrionoptera at first glance.
It is always nice to see FRIM from the eyes of a visitor
