    Jim another lovely shot, where you going off the ‘beaten track’ to get these unrecorded species?

  • Thanks, Jon. Not too far off the beaten path… This particular species has been known about for several years—the guy who is going to describe it (and several additional Argias) just hasn’t gotten around to it. On this trip we recorded at least four species of Argia which are known, but not yet described.
