From 1986-87, Japan issued 22 stamps in five series of insects which included scarabs, beetles, butterflies, dragon/damselflies. This stamp from the 3rd series shows a dragonfly known as a 'common picture wing', or 'variegated flutterer'. It likes the marshes, ponds, and paddy fields of South Asia.

Sorry about the long link - I'm having 'fun' with my macbook air!!
I love dragonflies, and feel that they are underrepresented on stamps.

This is very nice, especially the colours. The whole series of insects must be a thing!
