Close-up of a large red dragonfly (Rhodothemis lietincki) sitting on a green blade of grass. The insect is photographed from the side. The background is blurred.

A brown and rather plain hawker, with largely clear wings and conspicuous green eyes. The yellow triangle on S2 is diagnostic, as are the colour and shape of the hind wing base. Males patrol marshy ditches, reedy lakesides and other lush, calm waters.
Field characters: Tot 62-66mm, Ab 47-54mm, Hw 39-45mm.
Habitat: Ditches, marshes, ponds and lakes with rich vegetation. Favours swamps of Water-soldier (Stratiotes aloides) in most of its northern range.
Flight Season: May to August in most of its range, most abundant in June; earlier than most Aeshnia.
Distribution: Widespread but very local in much of its range, especially in south-west, often numerous where present.

This is not a very common Species in the described Habitats in the Netherlands.

Compared to the pre-1990 period, the species has increased strongly. So is with other dragonflies, Blue Emperor has benefit of the gradual warming in the last decades.
