BRITISH DRAGONFLY SOCIETY
|
Dragonflies are among the most ancient of living creatures. Fossil
records, clearly recognisable as dragonflies, go back to
Carboniferous times which means that they date back almost 300
million years, predating pterodactyls by 100 million years and
birds by some 150 million. It would be tragic if, after surviving
such an unimaginable number of years, it should be our generation
that witnesses the decline of these fascinating and beautiful
insects.Thanks to the rising awareness of the dragonfly's plight,
to our expanding knowledge of their needs, and to increasing
conservation activity, a number of species are actually extending
their range and this is enormously encouraging.
