Burmagomphus Sowerbyi

Burmagomphus sowerbyi (索氏缅春蜓).

An uncommon clubtail here in Changsha. I saw one by the Xiang river last August, first mistaking it for a common flangetail, before realizing, after it had flown away, that it was something rarer.  Fortunately, I have just seen another one, almost at the same spot as last year.
