Hello, all.

My Dragonflies and Damselflies of the West is about to be published  
by Princeton University Press, and I hope everyone who gets a copy  
will use it, learn from it, and enjoy it. I am receptive to  
constructive criticism and would very much like to know of any  
factual errors.

I am hard at work taking and acquiring photos for the eastern field  
guide now. There are still quite a few that have eluded me so far,  
and I am listing them here. I would very much appreciate being able  
to use good photos of any of the following species and sexes. I have  
no photo budget, but those whose photos are used will get a copy of  
the book when it is published. I will need tiffs or high-quality  
jpegs with at least 1000 pixels on the long side of the cropped  
image. I submit them to the publisher at 300 dpi, but they can be at  
other resolutions, as long as the pixels are there. I'm also happy to  
use scanned images from slides or will accept slides, scan them, and  
return them right away.

Hopefully this list can serve as a challenge to all those who will be  
in the field this summer. I will continue to acquire photos all  
through the summer, and hopefully this list can serve as a challenge  
to all those who will be in the field and may come across any of  
these (mostly uncommon) species.

Thanks in advance!
