Amber-winged Spreadwing (Lestes eurinus) is a distinctive, heavy-bodied species, showing diagnostic amber-colored wings, just as the common name would suggest. This spreadwing is found in a variety of ponds and wetlands, usually fishless (Paulson, 2011). It is widespread from western Maryland to the Piedmont, but has not been recorded from the Eastern Shore (Richard Orr's Dragonflies and Damselflies of Maryland and the District of Columbia). It is considered an S3 (on the watch list).
There are 48 records in the project database.
