dragonflies (morphology) -animals

Dragonflies are a kind of insects that we often encounter in everyday life. Usually these animals fly around the area that has many plants.

Perhaps most of us often find the presence of dragonflies that are almost always close to the water. Apparently it is done because dragonflies put their eggs on the water surface. the eggs they put will hatch and become very small dragonflies and over time the larvae will turn into small dragonflies and continue to grow into adult dragonflies and ready to marry and reproduce again.

Food: usually eat smaller insects such as flies, aphis, and moths.

Habitat: dragonflies rarely stay away from the water, where they lay their eggs. Dragonflies spread widely in the forests, gardens, rice fields, rivers, lakes, to the yard of the house. The type of needle dragonfly usually flies weakly and rarely explores far.

Breeding: experiencing partial metamorphosis. The eggs are usually placed on water plants. Nimfa dragonflies are called naiads that live in water and breathe using gills. These dragonfly nymphs eat small fish or tadpoles. The nymph will then turn into an adult dragonfly. Dragonflies always reproduce in the air.

In addition, some life dragonfly turns out longer when he became larvae that is about for 3 years and after that the dragonfly larvae will morphed into a dragonfly insect with a complete body shape.
