Female Scarlet Percher

Female Scarlet Percher
Photographed at the Barron Falls overlook, the dragonfly has been identified by my friend, Fizgig, as a female Scarlet Percher. The male of this species is red but the female is this yellowish color, a great example of sexual dimorphism.

A Darter, judging by the manner it is perched but I have no idea as to the Species as I know little about the insects of Australia. As stated by Sonja there are no Darters native to Australia but that does not mean a few could have sneaked a ride on an airplane from Japan

Very nicely captured Ron.
