This handsome deimoiselle isn't rare in its habitat (near small rivers and streams inside of Javan mountain rainforests), the issue is that its habitat is vanishing (illegal logging, population pressure)..... day by day..... sadly enough that the price of dead specimens (on internet-auctions) is 30-50 US$...... the big sellout of nature....., however, traditional (kasepuhan) communities try to protect their environment.Vestalis luctuosa BURMEISTER, 1839, Subfamily: CalopteryginaeFamily: Calopterygidae (broad-winged damselflies or demoiselles, Prachtlibellen)Suborder: Zygoptera (damselflies, Kleinlibellen)Order: Odonata (Libellen)Indonesia, W-Java, Sukabumi: vic. Ciptagelar (TGHS), ca. 1400m asl., 30.7.2010(IMG_3070)
