Came across two species of the spreadwings today.
Both are already in my checklist.
Nevertheless, as I do not often find them, it is always nice to get the opportunity for more photos, and hopefully better photos, of these species.

The Platylestes heterostylus is pictured above (female) and on the left (male) while the Lestes praemorsus (male) is shown on the right.
Both these damselflies of the family Lestidae are very similar looking but for the colour and markings...
And finding this tandem pair of Platylestes heterostylus has certainly made my day!
A rare find indeed!
