Pasamos una mañana en la charca a la que llamamos de los dryas, por ser esta especie, Lestes dryas abundantes allí, junto con los L. barbarus. Al final cuando ya nos íbamos, me encuentro con este macho de Ischnura pumilio, adulto con sus negros y azules, con el S9 totalmente azul y una porción del S8, que lo identifica. Fue durante la QDD Blauverd del 2018, en la Serranía de Cuenca.

Grasshoppers are a group of insects belonging to the suborder Caelifera. They are among what is possibly the most ancient living group of chewing herbivorous insects, dating back to the early Triassic around 250 million years ago.
Grasshoppers are typically ground-dwelling insects with powerful hind legs which allow them to escape from threats by leaping vigorously. Their front leg is shorter and used for grasping food. As hemimetabolous insects, they do not undergo complete metamorphosis; they hatch from an egg into a nymph or "hopper" which undergoes five moults, becoming more similar to the adult insect at each developmental stage.

Esta es una de las primeras fotos que hice a las Ischnura graellsii, en cópula, con hembra del tipo B (infuscans), fue en Villena con la excelente luz de la tarde en una zona que se creó gracias a una fuga de agua, hoy ya reparada la avería, desapareció la zona húmeda donde había especies interesantes como Orthetrum brunneum… y algunas otras. Doy las gracias a Ricardo Menor, que me llevó al lugar y pude fotografiar a estas especies por primera vez, por lo que estaré siempre en deuda con él.
