  • Damselflies & Dragonflies of the Tees and Humber Industrial Sites
    Damselflies & Dragonflies of the Tees and Humber Industrial Sites Introduction Damselflies and dragonflies belong to the same ‘order’ of insects called the Odonata. Although the adults are flying insects, the other stages of their life cycle are spent in water. Adults lay their eggs on aquatic plants or in the mud of still or slow moving freshwater. The larval or ‘nymph’ form is the immature stage which is wingless. Nymphs eat other aquatic insects and small animals such as tadpoles and small fish. They shed their skin as they grow and larger species can take several years to reach the point Damsel or Dragon? where they become full-grown. At this point The following key points will give an they climb out of the water onto surrounding indication of the main differences vegetation and after a short period the adult between dragonflies and damselflies: insect emerges from the old larval skin.

  • British Dragonfly Society Sussex Group Newsletter Winter! 2019
    British Dragonfly Society Sussex Group Newsletter Winter! 2019 No 43 Expect the Unexpected By John Arnott Chichester Natural History Society members have been monitoring dragonflies at RSPB Medmerry since summer 2014, soon after it was flooded in autumn 2013. As many people know, this newly created wetland complex was designed primarily as a coastal flood mitigation system but with many natural habitat features built in. On the western edge is a complex of runoff channels with many bends and interconnected pools, all providing ideal habitat for dragonflies. Six years on and the channel system has become filled with a lush growth of aquatic plants domi- nated by tall emergents such as Branched Bur-reed Sparganium erectum, Reed Sweet-grass Glyceria maxima and Water-plantain Alisma plantago-aquatica together with submerged aquatics, in particu- lar, dense mats of Spiked Water-milfoil Myriophyllum spicatum. The management priority here is for Water Vole Arvicola amphibius so good aquatic plant growth is encouraged. too I’ve always thought that Med- merry would be in the front line for migrant species of dragonfly from the Continent. We rec- orded our first sightings of Small Red-eyed Damselfly Eryth- romma viridulum on 1st August 2014 but since then it has been quiet as far as migrant dragon- flies are concerned. Sussex Dragonfly Society Newsletter Continued ... I’ve always been a keen follower of Adrian Parr’s Migrant Dragonflies Facebook page and before every survey I spend time going through his books to remind myself what migrants to look out for. On 5th July this year we arrived at the RSPB Medmerry car park at Earnley in good time to meet other members of Chichester NHS and have lunch before our first dragonfly survey of the season.

  • Dragonflies & Damselflies
    Wildlife of Barcombe Parish – Dragonflies & Damselflies Some personal observations (to 30 September 2020) Simon Linington1 & Nick Lear 1 ([email protected]) Introduction Dragonflies and damselflies are predatory insects that are colourful and aerial as adults. As adults, dragonflies hold their wings out from the body when perched, have pairs of wings that differ in shape and are larger than damselflies. The latter are rather delicate, have identical pairs of wings and tend to sit with their wings folded along the body. Being in the warmer south of the country, Sussex is a good county in which to see these insects and by far the majority of the county’s species have been recorded in Barcombe Parish. They can be found in many places within the parish - even in gardens (especially those with ponds). One good location to see them is along the River Ouse at Barcombe Mills. Map and place names For simplicity, in this document both ‘Barcombe’ (proper) and ‘Barcombe Cross’ are referred to as ‘Barcombe’. Barcombe Parish has two reservoirs – a small farm one located below the new village hall and South East Water’s Barcombe Mills Reservoir. It is important to note that the latter is closed to the public. However, all references to ‘Barcombe Reservoir’ relate to the second facility. Barcombe Parish also has two disused railway tracks (though not all with public access; some stretches that are used by the public require due care). Nearly all references to the ‘old railway track’ relate to the 1.5 km stretch that runs from just west-north-west of the village as far as the Secret Campsite to the north-west of Knowlands Wood.

Although the latter is designated principally on the richness of its dragonfly and damselfly fauna; the River Kird has not been systematically surveyed for these insects. In the summer of 2017 we were able to survey over 5km of the lower reaches of the River Kird, from Kirdford to the point where it reaches the River Arun.
