Oh, good life, I did not know him. Thank you.

How much shorter mask simpekm have - I do not know. IMHO if shorter, slightly. In general, in this shot, I would not have taken significantly distinguished from halkolestesov simpekm. I called pedisku the most, in my opinion, the likely choice for the Moscow region.Or maybe from that brought imago larvae, and we head to break? :)

What is the female, seen from the ovipositor. :)

I do not know whether you can trust this resource: http://www.naturefoto2000.com/cs/fotografie-3499/vazky-odonata/sidlatka-velka-chalcolestes-viridis-zygoptera-odonata/,
but the photo did not find differences.
In my opinion at Sympecma mask is shorter.
In any case, I do not insist.
Eugene, and what gender differences - painting?

Perhaps Chalcolestes sp. (But did they do from the Moscow region?). But IMHO possible Sympecma sp. And judging by geography, S. paedisca - the most likely possibility. Or am I missing something of the sort?

By the way, the female image. :)

Now, respectively,Chalcolestes viridis.
