Dragonflies and damselflies (Odonata) are a group of aesthetic aquatic insects. Over 420 species of Odonata have been recorded for Malaysia (Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak). They are waiting for me to explore.

Females of Heliocypha biforata, Heliocypha perforata and Aristocypha fenestrella
Aristocypha fenestrella, Heliocypha biforata and Heliocypha perforata are found in Peninsular Malaysia. The size of these species is not much different from each other. The males of these species are easily told apart by the coloration of their body. On the other hand, the females have quite similar coloration. However, they can be distinguished by the yellow marking of their bodies (see the below photos).
