Larva

Los odonatos pasan más tiempo, generalmente, en el agua en estado larvario que en la vida aérea.

Cuando han completado el desarrollo como larva salen al exterior y buscan donde hacer la emergencia.

La larva que vemos correponde a un individuo de Libelulla depressa. Trepó por la piedra junto a la orilla, ancló con sus uñas y allí se produjo.

El tamaño de la larva es algo inferior al 50% del adulto.

Odonates generally spend more time in water in the larval stage than in aerial life.

When they have completed their development as a larva, they go outside and look for where to make the emergence.

The larva that we see corresponds to an individual of Libelulla depressa. She scrambled up the stone by the shore, anchored with her nails, and there she was.

The size of the larva is slightly less than 50% of the adult.
