Odonates from Yucatan and Cozumel, Mexico November 2013 |
From November 16 - 24, 2013, Sheridan Coffey, Dan Peak and I visited the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico, birding at Cozumel, Felipe Carillo Puerto, Calakmul, Chichen Itza, Rio Lagartos, and Coba. Here are some odonates I managed to photograph in-between birds!:
Argia sp. - four males and a female.
Tropical Sprite - a male.
Coryphaeschna darners - mostly diapyra I feel, but a couple may not be...
Dythemis multipunctata - a female.
Dythemis sterilis - three males.
Red Pondhawk - a male.
Red-faced Dragonlet - males.
Erythrodiplax sp. - a young male; maybe Band-winged Dragonlet?

Macrothemis sp. - a female.
Micrathyria sp. - a male similar to Three-striped M. didyma.
Micrathyria debilis - a few males and a couple of females.
