Also known as the spreadwing as it belongs to a group of damsels which mostly perch with their wings open like a true dragonfly, rather than held closed along the length of the abdomen like most other damsels.

Their metallic green casings make them unlikely to be confused with any other species (in our region at least), the only other metallic green damsel being the female Banded Demoiselle, but colour is the only thing they have in common, the demoiselles are obviously bigger, longer legged, are green in their entirety and the wings are very large in comparison and tinted green, plus they are usually only found on rivers, emeralds very rarely are.

The last of the damsels to emerge, they aren't usually seen until July, and will be the only damsel remaining in late season, lasting through September.

Philoliche longirostris or the Long nosed horsefly is a fly of the Tabanidae family that is found in India and Nepal. It is especially notable by its proboscis, which is "many times longer than its body".

 

Males and females feed on nectar using the long mouthparts formed by the prementum of the labium. Females, in addition, feed on blood using the mandibular and maxillary structures which are much shorter.

The common pierot butterfly. It is almost entirely black and white, but that does not diminish it's beauty.
