Threadtails
Scientific name: Protoneuridae
Description
Belonging to the family Protoneuridae, these creatures are not just any ordinary damselfly. Often overlooked due to their diminutive size, members of the Protoneuridae are essential contributors to the ecosystem, acting as both predator and prey in their freshwater habitats. Fascinatingly, despite their fragile appearance, Protoneuridae species exhibit remarkable resilience and adaptability. Protoneuridae species uniquely thrive in environments ranging from stagnant waters to flowing streams, showcasing their evolutionary versatility. This dispels the stereotype that all damselflies share identical lifestyles and ecological roles.
