Red ID #3 - _TNY_0822
There are several species of darter dragonflies in Sweden which all have red males.
A good way to distinguish (some of) them is to look at the legs. This one from a trip to the Svartkällsskogens naturreservat is very red, but has no red at all the legs which tells us it must be a male ruddy darter (Sympetrum sanguineum).

Compare this one to a vagrant darter here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/52661182054/
