Perithemis Hagen 1861 View in CoL

For species identification see Ris (1930), Needham et al. (2014) and von Ellenrieder & Muzón (1999). Perithemis are small, amber-winged dragonflies ( Fig.108 View FIGURE 108 ) that occupy open and shaded ponds, ditches and small, slow streams. The group is well-represented in Ecuador where nine of the 13 described species are recorded.
