Appearance
Dragonfly's are an Aquatic larval insect. Their lower jaw is scoop like and covers most of their face. They eat small aquatic insects and animals. Their gills are located in their rectum and they breath by pumping water in and out of their hind end. They can also use this to propel themselves forward. When they Reach maturity, they crawl out of the water and shed their skin. adult females deposit eggs directly onto the surface of the water, starting the life cycle over.[1] |

If you're starting a new article, you can develop it here until it's ready to go live. If you're working on improvements to an existing article, copy only one section at a time of the article to this sandbox to work on, and be sure to use an edit summary linking to the article you copied from. Do not copy over the entire article. You can find additional instructions here. Remember to save your work regularly using the "Publish page" button. (It just means 'save'; it will still be in the sandbox.) You can add bold formatting to your additions to differentiate them from existing content. |
