After I Posted an dragonfly now its time for Damselflies, Damselflies is similar with dragonfly but its shape is smaller or slimmer than dragonfly and Damselflies in my country Indonesia, Java is named Ginjeng Dom (needle) so here a information about Damselflies from the source Wikipedia.

Damselflies (suborder Zygoptera) are insects in the order Odonata. Damselflies are similar to dragonflies, but the adults can be differentiated by the fact that the wings of most damselflies are held along, and parallel to, the body when at rest. Furthermore, the hindwing of the damselfly is essentially similar to the forewing, while the hindwing of the dragonfly broadens near the base. Damselflies are also usually smaller, weaker fliers than dragonflies, and their eyes are separated.

Etymology

Zygoptera comes from the Greek zygo meaning joined or paired and apter meaning wings. They have two pairs of similar wings, unlike the dragonflies (suborder Anisoptera), whose hind wings are broader than their fore wings. Damselflies also can fold their wings up over their backs, and dragonflies can't. Damselflies can land, but not walk.

So these are some beautiful or the best pictures of Damselflies which I have thank for you and I hope it will be useful for you.
