WildID Guides - Dragonflies & Damselflies

This guide features eight fold-out pages of detailed, full-colour illustrations showing the 26 dragonflies and 20 damselflies of Britain and Ireland, plus five common vagrant species. Different forms for males and females are shown where appropriate. Designed for speedy identification with life size illustrations. Notes on each species include length, flight period, distribution, habitat and more.

Ponds are more vital than ever for wildlife with around two-thirds of ponds in England and Wales having been lost since the late 19th century*. Even a small pond in your garden can provide a habitat for these remarkable aquatic insects.

WildID fold-out guides from the Field Studies Council provide an illustrative and informative way of helping you identify plants and wildlife in your garden and the wider landscape. The Field Studies Council is an environmental education charity based in the U.K. with the aim of creating outstanding opportunities for everyone to learn about nature.
