At the beginning of August this year, a "net red" star suddenly popped up in the Haikou Wuyuanhe red dragonfly family, and quickly appeared on the hot search list, which is the red-bellied dragonfly that broke the record of The Hainan Dragonfly. According to the ecological monitoring report of Wuyuanhe National Wetland Park, Wuyuanhe has recorded a total of 10 species of "red" dragonflies.

Yuan Langxing, project director of the Haikou Haikou Institute of Wetlands, was found to be a new record of the Hainan dragonfly variety, and since then a new member has been added to the "household registration book" of the Hainan dragonfly variety after being certified by Zhang Haomiao, a doctor of entomology at the Kunming Institute of Zoology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Hainan first found the red-bellied dragonfly report came out, immediately caused a heated discussion among the majority of netizens, and quickly appeared on the hot search list, "No, isn't this a common red dragonfly?" "This kind of red dragonfly, I grew up to see big." "When I was a child, I used to see cattle herding by the river."

……

"There are so many types of red dragonflies that it is difficult for citizens and tourists who do not have professional knowledge to distinguish between them." Zhang Haomiao, who has the title of "big guy" in China's dragonfly circle, pointed out, "In the more than ten years of investigation of dragonflies in Hainan, we have not found any traces of red-bellied dragonflies. ”

"In fact, it is normal for netizens to raise such questions, and it is more difficult for non-professionals or dragonfly enthusiasts to identify dragonflies." On August 24, Lu Gang, director of the Haikou Haolan Wetland Research Institute, introduced that among the more than 160 kinds of dragonflies recorded in Hainan, there are nearly 20 species belonging to the "red family", of which 10 species of red dragonflies are recorded in Haikou Wuyuanhe National Wetland Park.

The 10 species of red dragonflies are red-bellied heterogeneous dragonfly, red-brown gray dragonfly, reticulated dragonfly, yellow-winged dragonfly, red dragonfly, dawn brown dragonfly, red rouge dragonfly, red-spotted curved hooked dragonfly, yellow dragonfly, cloud-spotted dragonfly. Therefore, the red-bellied dragonfly that everyone thinks is probably not a Buddha-figure, and there will be a misunderstanding of "from small to large".

"Of course, for these new records and discoveries of new species, or the investigation of basic species, the input of professional researchers alone is very limited, and amateur science enthusiasts will have a lot of achievements and contributions in it." Lu Gang pointed out that Yuan Langxing, the discoverer of the red-bellied dragonfly, is a business dragonfly enthusiast, because of his persistence, he has set a new record for The Hainan Dragonfly.
