The Yellow-tailed Ashy Skimmer (Potamarcha congener) is sitting on an internet cable passing through the forest under a cloudy sky in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on June 21, 2025. This strong-flying dragonfly is known for patrolling territories, perching in sunny spots, and hunting for prey. They are acting as predators of other arthropods and are being considered indicators of good water quality, as they are requiring clean water sources for their larval development.
