Project Description

Hydrobasileus croceus, commonly known as the amber-winged marsh glider, is a species of dragonfly in the family Libellulidae. It is widely distributed across many Asian countries.  

  • Description: The amber-winged marsh glider is a large reddish-brown dragonfly with golden-amber tinted wings. Its eyes are reddish-brown above and yellowish below. The thorax is ochreous suffused with golden reddish-brown, and the base of the hind wings has a moderately broad dark reddish-brown mark. The abdomen is olivaceous, changing to ochreous towards the anal end, and is marked with black. Segments 4 to 9 of the abdomen have apical and basal dorsal black wedge-shaped spots.
  • Habitat: This dragonfly breeds in weedy ponds and lakes. Males are often seen patrolling over water and rarely perch. When they do perch, they prefer to hang vertically on twigs inside dense shrubbery.

As a wildlife photographer and nature enthusiast, capturing the vibrant colors and unique features of Hydrobasileus croceus could be a rewarding experience! Remember to approach your photography with care and contribute to environmental awareness and conservation efforts.
