Hello,
I took this picture in the Waterberg (Limpopo Province), mid-September.
I hesitate between a female Orthetrum or a female Crocothemis. I'm leaning toward the second (I counted 11-1/2 cross-
vein on the forwing), which would be Crocothemis divisa then (greyish sides of the thorax and first segments of 
abdomen, almost cylindrical abdomen, no wings patch)

Am I right?
