Checklist, Norwegian common names |
|
|
Below is a checklist of all the European dragonfly and damselfly species, with the Norwegian common names, if available. It's based on Dijkstra and Lewington's excellent Field Guide to the Dragonflies and Damselflies of Britain and Europe.
In the table below we've highlighted in yellow the 113 species of which we currently have photographs available. And of course we're hoping to be able to highlight many more in the foreseeable future. |
