1 Coppery Emerald [Somatochlora georgiana] Durham 2020-07-31 Anonymous 1 Found in a spider web by an anonymous observer in Durham, NC and posted to Odonata Central by Josh Rose (OC#1438247). This ID was proposed by Josh Rose and Chris Hill, and confirmed by Nick Donnelly and Jerrell Daigle via the Odonata-L listserv. Dennis Paulson recognized it as Somatochlora, but was hesitant to assign it to S. georgiana due to the odd pattern of pale stripes on the lateral thorax (along with other atypical characters). This site’s editors think that it is most likely a dark S. georgiana, though the thoracic pattern remains puzzling. - Male. Photo online
