Rhyothemis triangularis - Damaged by Rain
Below photograph shows a newly emerged male individual of Rhyothemis triangularis.
This photograph was taken in the morning at a pond. It looks like this male individual
was successfully emerged from a larva in the night. However, this individual was caught in the rain right after its larval emergence, causing its fresh and delicate wings stuck
together by the rain water.
