Enallagma
''Enallagma'' is a genus of damselflies in the family Coenagrionidae commonly known as bluets. Adults range in length from 28 mm to 40 mm. Males are usually bright blue and black while the coloration of females varies by species. Bluets can be distinguished from the similar vivid dancer by wing position; at rest, bluets' wings hang down on either side of their body, while vivid dancers hold their wings above their body. Bluets also have shorter leg spines. Subspecies The genus consists of the following species: *'' Enallagma ambiguum'' *'' Enallagma anna'' – River Bluet *'' Enallagma annexum'' – Northern Bluet *'' Enallagma antennatum'' – Rainbow Bluet *''Enallagma aspersum'' – Azure Bluet *'' Enallagma basidens'' – Double-Striped Bluet *'' Enallagma boreale'' – Boreal Bluet *'' Enallagma cardenium'' – Purple Bluet *'' Enallagma carunculatum'' – Tule Bluet *'' Enallagma civile'' – Familiar Bluet *'' Enallagma clausum'' – Alkali Bluet *'' Enalla ...

Enallagma Cyathigerum
''Enallagma cyathigerum'' (common blue damselfly, common bluet, or northern bluet) is a species found mainly between latitudes 40°N and 72°N; It is widely distributed in the Palearctic, and the Nearctic species ''Enallagma annexum'' was at one time considered to be synonymous with it. The species can reach a length of 32 to 35 mm (1.3 to 1.4 in). It is common in many different countries including Russia, Sweden, Norway, Finland, the United States of America, and South Korea. Damselflies are an important link between the health of the aquatic ecosystem and its response to climate change. Habitat These damselflies inhabit freshwater bodies whose conditions range, they have been seen in acidic fens as well as eutrophic ponds. They have been considered one of the more sensitive insects in an aquatic setting. They are important within the trophic levels as they are an intermediate predator. They consume smaller larvae and they are preyed on by fish and larvae bigger th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Enallagma Boreale
The boreal bluet (''Enallagma boreale'') is a species of damselfly in the family Coenagrionidae. Description Adult The boreal bluet is a small damselfly with a length of 1 to 1.6 inches (26 to 40 mm) long. The male is predominately blue on the sides of its thorax, and the upper side of its abdomen. Its lower abdominal appendages are longer than its upper appendages. The female's body is greenish-yellow to brown color. The upper side of its abdomen is mostly black. Nymph The nymph of the boreal bluet is small in size with a length of 0.75 to 1 inch (19 to 23 mm). It has the typical slender shape of many immature damselflies. Nymphs range in color from light to dark brown.

Enallagma Exsulans
The stream bluet (''Enallagma exsulans'') is a species of American bluet damselflies in the family Coenagrionidae. Its length is 29–37 mm. Many bluet species prefer ponds and lakes; the stream bluet as its name implies is most at home along moving waters. It can be found along small to medium-sized rivers. It is occasionally found at lakes too. In many species of damselflies the males have a blue tip to the abdomen. ''Enallagma exsulans'' is one of those less common cases where the female, too, has a blue abdominal tip. Summertime is the best time to look for stream bluets.
