The 1,000 color photographs contained in the Catalogue of Chinese Dragonflies are the best images carefully selected from a library of more than 200,000 images. This mainly comes from the author's own fieldwork, but also from excellent works by insect photographers from all over the world. The process of selecting the image is quite long, and I don't know how many versions have been replaced. Next, introduce these winners one by one according to the color system!
