For reference, postocular spots are almost always smaller on I. aurora than I. heterosticta.

@HarveyPerkins - I've had this confirmed by Reiner Richter and Christopher Burwell on iNat as this. I've added it in as a new species as it wasn't listed on here before as far as I can tell (I know that sometimes things can be named slightly differently between here and iNat).

Only the photo of the skimmer should be here. Please delete the other photos and make as new posts as necessary for identification.

Slender skimmer eating what looks like probably a Tau Emerald. Nice shot.

Orthetrum sabina
