The Four-spotted chaser is easily recognised by the two dark spots on the leading edge of each wing - giving this species its name. It can be seen on heathlands and near ponds and lakes.

The Broad-bodied chaser is a common dragonfly that can be seen in summer around ponds and lakes, and even in gardens. It lives up to its name: its flattened body gives it a fat, broad look.

This is a predominantly subtidal species but can be found on the lowest parts of a sheltered rocky shore in summer.

These feisty crustaceans are the ‘Houdinis’ of the rocky shore, evading capture as soon as disturbed!
