Orthetrum cancellatum. Inmature male

Como inmaduros, machos y hembras son muy similares. Entre otros detalles, podremos saber el sexo si llegamos a observar en la cara ventral del segundo segmento la genitalia secundaria, el órgano copulador, que se manifiesta como unas protuberancias. El ala no impide que las podamos distinguir.

As immatures, males and females are very similar. Among other details, we will be able to know the sex if we get to observe in the ventral face of the second segment the secondary genitalia, the copulatory organ, which manifests itself as protuberances. The wing does not prevent us from distinguishing them.
