- Natural History
Dragonflies are conspicuous insects. Many are large; they fly strongly; most arebrightly coloured. As a result, they have been collected extensively. Their larvae areless familiar. 'Mud-eyes', as some are called, are drab, and almost all live in freshwaters, out of sight. They are, perhaps, best known as bait for freshwater fish. The dragonflies constitute a very distinct order of insects, the Odonata.
