Descripción
Photographic library of wings of Australian Odonata
This resource is an index to photographs of male and female wings of 207 species of dragonfly and 111 species of damselfly found in Australia. Each image shows a pair of right wings, a scale, an identifying taxonomic name and gender.
These high-resolution images were made by John Tann at the Australian Museum using identified collection material from that museum and other Australian collections. Equipment and method used to create the images are detailed in Tann (2020).
The index has links to the wing image of each specimen and to an image of the original museum specimen.

Descripción del área de estudio | Both male and female wings of 318 species of Odonata found in Australia have been photographed. |
Descripción del diseño | Wings have been photographed with a specialist set-up using identified museum collection material. In general, both wings were removed from the insect body to produce an image with a minimum of visual artefacts. Each resulting image shows a pair of right wings, a scale, an identifying taxonomic name and gender. Equipment and method used to create the images are detailed in Tann, John. 2020.

Métodos de muestreo
In order to create good quality images, wings were removed from most specimens so they could be photographed without artefacts. Dragonflies and damselflies in paper envelopes were preferred to pinned specimens as they were generally cleaner, easier to work with, and required no reconstruction after photographing. Technique A specimen in poor condition, with good wings was selected. Many dragonfly and damselfly specimens in collections have broken bodies, separated abdomens or heads. Working with already-damaged material reduced the impact of this destructive technique. All specimens were registered, with few exceptions, and identification of each specimen was critical. Only one specimen at a time was processed before being returned to its drawer to avoid a mix-up. A whole-of-body photograph of the original specimen with all labels was made before further work, for reference and quality control. Both right wings were surgically removed. Occasionally, due to availability, left wings were used and their images artificially flipped. Both wings were photographed independently using a good quality camera and customised rig. Wings and bodies were returned to their paper envelope. Where pinned specimens were used, the wings were attached to paper points and re-pinned. Occasionally wings were photographed while still attached to the insect body. This was a sub-optimal method, used for rare and special specimens.

Control de Calidad | To ensure final wing images maintained their correct identification, the taxonomic name, according to the Australian Faunal Directory, and gender, male or female, were added to the lower right corner of each image. A whole-of-body photograph of the reference specimen with its registration number is available in this resource. |
