Additional documentation of the Slender Skimmer Orthetrum sabina (Drury, 1770) preying on the Pied Paddy Skimmer Neurothemis tullia (Drury, 1773) in Nepal

Orthetrum sabina is one of the most common dragonflies found in Nepal, but its feeding behavior has not often been reported from there. An example of this species preying on Neurothemis tullia is reported from Maidi Lake, Nepal. This observation was made during a field survey of Odonata using direct observation along transects around the lake. It adds to our knowledge of the species’ feeding behavior, elaborating the previous findings and providing scope for further ecological studies on Odonata.
