Dot-tailed Whiteface Male |
The dot-tailed whiteface is a small dragonfly with a length of 1 to 11/5 inches
(25 to 38 mm). It is distinguished by the mostly black body, small
black basal wing spots, black legs, and white face. Male dot-tailed
whitefaces have one yellow spot on the dorsal side of the abdomen.
Female dot-tailed whitefaces have multiple yellow spots along the dorsal
side of the abdomen and the last yellow spot is large and square
shaped. There is also a small yellow stripe along the lateral edge in
the middle of the abdomen. In both sexes, the abdomen has been known to
fade when they age.

I saw these out at what seemed to me an early time this year. We have lots of these.
