Does anyone else recall a temporary 'White-faced Darter' colony at Walberswick possibly in the 1990s? I recall some discussion once news broke after the event that maybe one of the continental species may have been involved? Or is my recollection playing tricks on me?

Paul there was meant to be a white-faced darter at Walberswick in the '90s. I never heard talk of it being a continental species though.

Many thanks - I suspect just a bit of idle speculation between a few of us.

That's exactly right Paul. It wasn't certain they were Leucorrhinia dubia.
Does anyone know yet why news didn't get out earlier about the Yellow-spotted Whiteface?

It certainly does. What a shame for us dragonfly twitchers not intent on murder.
What was the recent Essex incident I would like to know?

Assume it's the Southern Migrant Hawker incident from a few year's ago when one was collected for the "British Museum".
