Arthropods, transverse single-veined colored cetaceans
Matrona basilaris
Translucent single-veined color cetacean, belonging to arthropods, insects, dragonflies, color cockroaches, single-veined color cetaceans, mostly inhabit the pond edge vegetation dense weed bushes, distributed in many parts of the country. Photo taken in Kunming.
We often say dragonflies, mainly refers to dragonflies, dragonflies, and crickets. The former two belong to the dragonfly family and the dragonfly family of the suborder Dipterae, and the latter belongs to the suborder Homoptera. Judging only from the names of suborders, it is known that the wings of the first two are different, while the wings of the cetyl are not only equal in size, but are bundled together when grounded.
Some people describe the color cricket this way: If the cricket is compared to a beauty, then the color cricket is the top beauty among the beauty. The transipherable single-veined cetacean is a typical color cricket, especially the male is green throughout, the wing tip is slightly transparent, the area near the base of the wing, which accounts for about 1/3 of the wing, is blue, and the rest is black brown. When exposed to sunlight, it emits a blueish metallic luster, like a delicate flying mechanical insect. Females are bronzed green in color, with fine yellow lines at the back of the thorax, metallic luster when exposed to sunlight, and brown wings with shorter white pseudo-winged nevi.
In summer and autumn, between waterholes or grasses on both sides of slower streams, the figure of single-veined crickets can often be seen. Because the insect body of the cockroach is more slender than that of the dragonfly, it will feel smaller visually, in fact, many cockroaches and dragonflies have the same body length, and the same is true for the single-veined colored crickets. Its average body length is about 5 cm and its hindwings are about 4.5 cm.
Like dragonflies, translucent monocytostempers are excellent aerial hunters, and their larvae are the top predators in the water. The larvae of both the cockroach and the dragonfly are called "water bugs" and are extremely similar in appearance. However, a closer look can tell the difference. The larvae of the dragonfly are thicker and lean on the rectal gills to breathe without tail gills at the end of the abdomen. The larvae of the cerraine are as slender as the adults, and have a distinct three-tailed gill at the end of the abdomen, which can also be used to increase the speed of paddling when swimming.
