List Of Odonata Species Of Slovenia
The list of Odonata species of Slovenia includes 72 species of Odonata, dragonflies and damselflies ( sl, kačji pastirji) for which reliable records exist from the present-day territory of Slovenia, including one that has not been seen since the 1960s and is presumed to have been Local extinction, extirpated (locally extinct), but could have simply been overlooked. The list is based on two reference works: ''Atlas of the Dragonflies (Odonata) of Slovenia'', a joint publication of the Slovene Odonatological Society and the Slovene Centre for Cartography of Fauna and Flora from 1997, and the newer ''Atlas of the European dragonflies and damselflies'' (2015), supported by other, more recent publications in which new species Species description, described after 1997 were documented. Odonata species from the territory of present-day Slovenia were systematically studied by the naturalists Johann Weikhard von Valvasor and Giovanni Antonio Scopoli as early as the 17th and 18th centuries; ...

Blue Dragonfly Iski Vingart
Blue is one of the three primary colours in the RYB color model, RYB colour model (traditional colour theory), as well as in the RGB color model, RGB (additive) colour model. It lies between Violet (color), violet and cyan on the optical spectrum, spectrum of visible light. The eye perceives blue when observing light with a dominant wavelength between approximately 450 and 495 nanometres. Most blues contain a slight mixture of other colours; Azure (color), azure contains some green, while ultramarine contains some violet. The clear daytime sky and the deep sea appear blue because of an optical effect known as Rayleigh scattering#Cause of the blue colour of the sky, Rayleigh scattering. An optical effect called Tyndall effect explains Eye color#Blue, blue eyes. Distant objects appear more blue because of another optical effect called aerial perspective. Blue has been an important colour in art and decoration since ancient times. The semi-precious stone lapis lazuli was used i ...

Lestes Macrostigma2
''Lestes'' is a genus of damselfly in the family Lestidae. The family hold their wings at about 45 degrees to the body when resting. This distinguishes them from most other species of damselflies which hold the wings along, and parallel to, the body when at rest.

Lestes Dryas
''Lestes dryas'' is a species of damselfly in the family Lestidae, the spreadwings. Its common names include emerald spreadwing, scarce emerald damselfly and robust spreadwing.Boudot, J. 2014''Lestes dryas''.The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Downloaded on 28 January 2016. An alternate name in Ireland is the turlough spreadwing. This species is native to the Holarctic, especially northern parts of Eurasia and North America. It is relictual in North Africa. ''L. dryas'' can tolerate extreme conditions that few other dragonflies can survive. Identification This damselfly is about 35 to 42 millimeters long, the males are generally longer than the females. The males' wingspan is about 45 millimeters and the females' about 47 millimeters.Watson, L., and Dallwitz, M. J. 2003 onwards''Lestes dryas'' (Kirby, 1890).British insects: Dragonglies and Damselflies (Odonata). Version: 1st January 2012.

''Lestes barbarus'' is a species of damselfly of the family Lestidae, the spreadwings. Its common names in English include southern emerald damselfly, shy emerald damselfly, and migrant spreadwing.Clausnitzer, V. 2009''Lestes barbarus''.The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Downloaded on 28 January 2016. Distribution and habitat ''Lestes barbarus'' is a southern European species with a rapidly expanding range. It is found across southern Europe in a band across Spain, France, Italy and Greece to India and Mongolia. It is less common in northern Europe.

Chalcolestes Viridis
''Chalcolestes viridis'', formerly ''Lestes viridis'', is a damselfly of the family Lestidae. It has a metallic green body and at rest it holds its wings away from its body. Its common name is the willow emerald damselfly, the green emerald damselfly, or the western willow spreadwing. It has an elongated abdomen and pale brown spots on its wings and resides in areas of still water with overhanging trees. Taxonomy The genus ''Chalcolestes'' is separated from ''Lestes'' because of differences in their larvae. A closely related species '' C. parvidens'' used to be considered a sub-species of ''C. viridis''. ''C. parvidens'' occurs in Greece, Bulgaria, Croatia and in Italy; near Rome it flies with ''C. viridis'' in the same ponds. There are small morphological differences between the two species both as adults and larvae and analysis of proteins from the two species, by electrophoresis, also supports their separation into two species, but they are hard to tell apart in the field. ...
