These postcards of dragonflies/damselflies are just beautiful.... Odonata species appear in the postcards are Chalybeothemis chini, Idionyx yolanda, Dysphaea dimidiata and Pseudagrion rubriceps.
Over 250 species of odonates living in all kinds of aquatic habitats in Peninsular Malaysia. They are waiting for me to be explored........

Acrogomphus minor
Acrogomphus minor has distribution from Thailand to Peninsular Malaysia. However, so far only one record has been documented from Peninsular Malaysia - of which the species was being described by Laidlaw (1931). The Peninsular Malaysia old specimen (holotype) was actually collected by H.M. Pendlebury somewhere in Kuala Lumpur in July 1922.
Lately, I caught one A. minor specimen from Perak. So, this will be the second record (specimen) of A. minor from Peninsular Malaysia in 90 years!
