[Odonata-l] a *real* ID challenge

[Joshua Stuart Rose]

Hey all,

This one may well be impossible, but just in case....

Oh, and not for the weak of stomach, so don't read the below over  
breakfast!

Mark Bartosik, whose photography (particularly of birds eating  
dragonflies) regularly amazes, has a request. He photographed an  
Osprey eating a fish, and during the bird's dinner, the fish's  
stomach was torn open, which revealed a dragonfly. Mark would like to  
know, if possible, what species the dragon is. Anyone game for this  
challenge?

Let me know, and I'll relay to Mark...

Thanks,

Josh
