Description
Lestes sponsa (Hansemann, 1823)
Native status
R
Conservation status
erl: LC; irl: LC
Notes
Flight period: I June - III September
Species localised in the study area, it has been reported only at Pian di Spagna-Lake Mezzola, Parco delle Groane CO-MB, Parco della Pineta di Appiano Gentile e Tradate CO and Palude di Brivio. L. sponsa is mainly found in two habitat typologies: lowland ephemeral wetlands within heathlands and wet meadows, up to ca. 280 m a.s.l. Although there is no clear evidence due to the few historical records available, it is likely that this species, like others with similar ecological preferences, decreased in the last century, as reported in neighbouring regions (Wildermuth et al. 2005, Assandri 2020).
