25.01.2022 *CHASMOPTERA* Have you seen Chasmoptera hutti in your garden or bush? Want to confirm the validity of the three known species (Chasmoptera hutti, C. superba and C. mathewsi) and also determine if any new species exist (almost certainly based on museum collections). One of these new species' comes from Lake Grace. They are approximately 2-5cm in length (including wings) with two "dragonfly-like" wings and two elongated, oddly shaped wings. They fly in a fluttery movement for ...short distances, resting on low vegetation while "flicking" their longer, odd tail wings. The Lake Grace species in particular has pretty large "spoon-wings" so may be a bit easier to spot than others! Attached are pictures for reference of a known species, as they all look very similar. Contact Liesel Morgan, phone: 0435 158 696 or email [email protected]. If the person could get a photograph, or even capture one of these insects, it would be very, very helpful. The aim is to form some groundwork for state conservation approval, protecting more of our precious flora and fauna.
