$Field characters: 66-84mm, abdomen: 50-61mm, Hw: 45-52mm.\n\nBlue Emperor is presently a common species, which is only absent from parts of the northern provinces of Groningen and Friesland. It is found at most larger bodies of standing water. Compared to the pre-1990 period, the species has increased strongly. So is with other dragonflies, Blue Emperor has benefit of the gradual warming in the last decades.\n\nThe largest Aeshnid in most of our area and common Species in the Netherlands$

$A brown and rather plain hawker, with largely clear wings and conspicuous green eyes. The yellow triangle on S2 is diagnostic, as are the colour and shape of the hind wing base. Males patrol marshy ditches, reedy lakesides and other lush, calm waters.\nField characters: Tot 62-66mm, Ab 47-54mm, Hw 39-45mm.\nHabitat: Ditches, marshes, ponds and lakes with rich vegetation. Favours swamps of Water-soldier (Stratiotes aloides) in most of its northern range.\nFlight Season: May to August in most of its range, most abundant in June; earlier than most Aeshnia.\nDistribution: Widespread but very local in much of its range, especially in south-west, often numerous where present. \n\nThis is not a very common Species in the described Habitats in the Netherlands.$

Both sexes of the Four-spotted chaser are golden-brown, getting darker towards the tip of the body, and with yellow spots along the sides. Two dark spots at the front edge of each wing give this dragonfly its name and an easily recognisable appearance.

From the dazzling flight of dragonflies to the diligent work of honeybees, insects and spiders play a vital role in maintaining ecological balance. These small creatures support pollination, pest control, and biodiversity, reminding us of the importance of sustainable practices to protect their habitats and ensure a thriving planet for all.Location: Asola , New Delhi (India)
