Size of genitalia of the club-tailed dragonfly
editIn an X-files episode, "War of the Coprophages" an entomologist examines the genitalia of a cockroach on order to establish specie and is astounded to discover that it is "hung like a club-tailed dragonfly". Does this reflect on reality? Is there something unusual about the size if these genitalia that should be mentioned in the article? __meco (talk) 14:29, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
Distinctive Nymph
editI feel like it should be discussed on this page that the nymphs of Gomphidae have extremely distinctive antennae and are notable in aquatic entomology keys as such. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Delightedly (talk • contribs) 07:33, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
